President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. Military had conducted a “SECOND Kinetic Strike” against another Venezuelan narco-terrorist boat that had been carrying “illegal narcotics.”

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the strike resulted in three “male terrorists” being killed, and added that “no U.S. Forces were harmed” during the strike.

Trump also explained that the “narcoterrorists from Venezuela” had been traveling in “International Waters” with illegal narcotics.

“This morning, on my Orders, U.S. Military Forces conducted a SECOND Kinetic Strike against positively identified, extraordinarily violent drug trafficking cartels and narcoterrorists in the SOUTHCOM area of responsibility,” Trump said.

“The Strike occurred while these confirmed narcoterrorists from Venezuela were in International Waters transporting illegal narcotics (A DEADLY WEAPON POISONING AMERICANS!) headed to the U.S.”

“These extremely violent drug trafficking cartels POSE A THREAT to U.S. National Security, Foreign Policy, and vital U.S. Interests,” Trump continued.

“The Strike resulted in 3 male terrorists killed in action. No U.S. Forces were harmed in this Strike. BE WARNED — IF YOU ARE TRANSPORTING DRUGS THAT CAN KILL AMERICANS, WE ARE HUNTING YOU! The illicit activities by these cartels have wrought DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCES ON AMERICAN COMMUNITIES FOR DECADES, killing millions of American Citizens. NO LONGER.”

At the beginning of September, Trump announced that the U.S. Military had “shot out” a Venezuelan “drug-carrying” boat.

The strike resulted in the death of 11 Tren de Aragua narcoterrorists, who had been en route to the United States.

Venezuelan Communications Minister Freddy Ñáñez claimed that a video of the drug-carrying ship being struck was “fake,” while not presenting “any evidence to substantiate his claims.”

Hours after the video was published, Ñáñez, who also serves as socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro’s “Vice President of Communications and Culture,” went on several social media platforms to “debunk” the video as “fake.”

Ñáñez did not present any evidence to substantiate his claims, but said that the allegedly “fake” video is “proof” of accusations that Nicolás Maduro levied against U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Monday.

The two strikes on Venezuelan drug trafficking vessels comes after the U.S. deployed “three Aegis guided-missile destroyers near Venezuelan waters” in August.

The move was part of the Trump administration’s effort to “address threats from Latin American drug cartels.”

Trump’s aggressive military action against drug cartels represents a dramatic shift in America’s approach to the narcotics crisis.

Previous administrations treated drug trafficking as primarily a law enforcement issue rather than a national security threat.

The President’s direct military intervention sends an unmistakable message to cartels worldwide that their operations will face lethal consequences.

The deployment of guided-missile destroyers near Venezuelan waters demonstrates Trump’s commitment to protecting American borders through overwhelming force.

These precision strikes eliminate dangerous criminals before they can deliver poison to American communities.

The successful operations prove that American military technology can effectively target and destroy cartel vessels in international waters.

Trump’s warning that “WE ARE HUNTING YOU” puts every drug trafficker on notice that their activities now carry potentially fatal risks.

The Venezuelan government’s desperate attempts to deny the strikes only confirm their effectiveness and accuracy.

Maduro’s regime clearly fears the international exposure of its connections to drug trafficking operations.

The elimination of 14 narcoterrorists in two separate strikes represents a significant blow to cartel operations.

These military actions complement Trump’s domestic efforts to secure the border and combat the opioid epidemic.

The President’s direct approach bypasses the diplomatic failures that allowed cartels to operate with impunity for decades.

American families who have lost loved ones to drug overdoses finally see their government taking decisive action against the source of the crisis.

The precision of these strikes demonstrates superior intelligence gathering and military capabilities that cartels cannot evade.

Trump’s willingness to use military force against drug traffickers establishes a new deterrent against future smuggling attempts.

The international waters location of these strikes shows that geographic boundaries will not protect criminals from American justice.

These operations mark the beginning of a sustained campaign to destroy cartel networks threatening American communities.

The zero American casualties in both strikes prove the effectiveness of advanced military technology and superior training.

Trump’s bold action where previous presidents failed shows the difference strong leadership makes in protecting American lives.
