U.S. says three killed in boat strike as campaign toll hits 185

The U.S. military said on Sunday (April 26, 2026) that three men were killed when it struck a boat “engaged in narco-trafficking operations” in the Eastern Pacific ocean.

This latest strike — which follows dozens of similar attacks in recent months — brings the U.S. campaign’s death toll to at least 185, according to a tally compiled by AFP.
