In a recent statement, President Donald Trump confirmed that the US will send two survivors of a struck submarine, alleged to be transporting drugs, back to Ecuador and Colombia. The submarine was reportedly filled with fentanyl and other narcotics during the operation, which occurred in the Caribbean Sea. Trump described the mission as a significant step in combating drug smuggling from Latin America, although this strike is one among several conducted in recent weeks that has raised human rights concerns. Critics have labeled these attacks as extrajudicial killings, emphasizing the need for transparency and evidence regarding the actions taken and those targeted. The two survivors were rescued by a US military helicopter, marking a notable instance in the ongoing efforts to patrol the waters against drug trafficking.
