President Trump announced a second U.S. military strike on a Venezuelan vessel allegedly carrying drugs, resulting in three deaths. The strike follows a similar incident two weeks prior. Trump claims proof of drug smuggling, while senators question the legality of the military's law enforcement role. The administration justifies the actions as necessary to combat drug trafficking and national security threats, but concerns are raised regarding potential war with Venezuela and human rights violations. The Venezuelan government accuses the U.S. of using drug accusations as a pretext for regime change.
