The US empire’s military has attacked another small boat allegedly carrying drugs in the eastern Pacific, off the coast of México.US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth reported on social media this Wednesday, October 29, that the attack, ordered by President Donald Trump, took place the same day of the report and that four people were assassinated.“This vessel, like all the others, was known by our intelligence to be involved in illicit narcotics smuggling, was transiting along a known narco-trafficking route, and carrying narcotics,” the statement claimed, continuing the slew of fictive propaganda. “Four male narco-terrorists were aboard the vessel—and killed—during the strike, which was conducted in international waters.
