"The Navy is medically treating two survivors of the latest U.S. airstrike on an alleged Venezuelan cartel drug vessel, according to The Wall Street Journal. The two survivors were rescued from their sunken submersible by the Coast Guard on Thursday and transferred to the USS Iwo Jima, where a medical staff was waiting to treat them, the report said. This was the sixth known air strike against alleged drug runners and the first time any survivors have been reported."
"We have a lot of drugs coming in from Venezuela, and a lot of the Venezuelan drugs come in through the sea, Trump told reporters. So, you get to see that, but we're going to stop them by land also. Trump has claimed that every one of those boats is responsible for the death of 25,000 American people and the destruction of families. So when you think of it that way, what we're doing is actually an act of kindness."
Two survivors of a U.S. airstrike on an alleged Venezuelan cartel drug vessel were rescued from a sunken submersible by the Coast Guard and are receiving medical treatment aboard the USS Iwo Jima. The strike was the sixth known attack on alleged drug runners and marked the first time survivors have been reported; twenty-seven people have died so far in the administration's offensive against alleged Venezuelan drug gangs. Venezuela's U.N. ambassador condemned the strikes and said families claimed two of the dead were fishermen. The president authorized covert CIA action and hinted at possible land strikes, while lawmakers and Pentagon insiders questioned proof and legality. The administration has not disclosed the survivors' destination.
