Eighth U.S. strike hits cartel boat in Pacific

The U.S. military carried out its eighth strike on an alleged drug cartel boat since early September, hitting a vessel in the Eastern Pacific west of Central America on Tuesday night, officials said. There were no survivors; two people were killed, and no U.S. forces were harmed. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth posted video of the attack. At least 34 people have died in the series of strikes, most in the Caribbean. The unprecedented use of lethal force has raised legal questions, as the Trump administration defends the strikes as a 'war' on cartels. CBS News first reported the strike.
