The US Senate Armed Services Committee has vowed to scrutinize the alleged incident
US Secretary of Battle Pete Hegseth has lambasted the Washington Put up after it alleged that he had ordered army models to “kill everybody” on a suspected drug-trafficking boat within the Caribbean in early September.
Excessive-ranking members of the US Senate Armed Services Committee have mentioned it’s going to scrutinize the alleged incident.
Over the previous few months, the US has amassed over a dozen warships and a few 15,000 army personnel off the coast of Venezuela as a part of its Operation Southern Spear, which is ostensibly directed in opposition to “narcoterrorists.”

US President Donald Trump has refused to rule out army motion within the South American nation. Caracas has persistently denied any involvement with drug traffickers.
In a submit on X on Saturday, Hegseth wrote that “as usual, the fake news is delivering more fabricated, inflammatory, and derogatory reporting to discredit our incredible warriors fighting to protect the homeland.”
He didn’t deny the allegations outright, saying that “these highly effective strikes are specifically intended to be lethal, kinetic strikes.”
“Every trafficker we kill is affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization,” the secretary added.
In a report earlier on Saturday, the Washington Put up, citing nameless sources “with direct knowledge of the operation,” claimed that Hegseth gave the order to “kill everybody” on a ship that was destroyed on September 2. The assault allegedly claimed the lives of all eleven individuals aboard.
In response to the newspaper, since then, the US army has hit not less than 22 extra vessels within the Caribbean Sea and japanese Pacific Ocean, killing one other 71 alleged drug smugglers.
Late on Friday, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Republican Senator Roger Wicker issued an announcement together with Democratic members of the committee, saying that they “take seriously the reports of follow-on strikes on boats alleged to be ferrying narcotics in the SOUTHCOM region and are taking bipartisan action to gather a full accounting of the operation in question.”
In a submit on his Fact Social platform on Saturday, US President Trump proclaimed the “airspace above and surrounding Venezuela to be closed in its entirety.”
The Venezuelan Overseas Ministry has characterized Trump’s comment as a “colonialist threat.”
