Trump’s Boat Bombings Take an Unexpected Twist

President Donald Trump has ordered the bombing of another supposed drug-smuggling boat from Venezuela, but the strike is reported to have left survivors.

A U.S. official told Reuters that some people aboard the vessel survived the latest attack, but said it was unclear whether the strike was intended to spare anyone. CBS News and NBC News separately confirmed the incident, citing U.S. officials

It’s at least the sixth such vessel targeted by Trump since early September. The president has ordered attacks on suspected narcotics boats as part of a campaign against “narco-terrorists” that has killed at least 27 people so far, not including the latest reported attack.
