Summary

Since September 2025, U.S. Southern Command has conducted boat strikes against suspected narcotics-smuggling vessels in the Caribbean, resulting in 238 deaths. While the U.S. maintains that these operations constitute a non-international armed conflict allowing for the use of lethal force without legal proceedings, the campaign has drawn international condemnation. UN human rights experts have characterized the strikes as extrajudicial executions. Although the U.S. defends the initiative as a measure to combat drug-related overdose deaths, reports indicate that the campaign has not led to a detectable decline in such fatalities.
