Defense department watchdog opens inquiry into US airstrikes on alleged drug boats
Excerpt
The Trump administration has described the operation as an effort to fight “narco-traffickers” from Latin America on their way to the US. The US has since conducted at least 58 attacks, according to a tracker from the law journal Just Security, killing 193 people, including 13 missing and presumed dead. The administration has also insisted the operation is “on firm legal ground”.
