The US Navy successfully captured two survivors after they allegedly attacked a so-called “drug sub” in Venezuelan waters. The incident took place yesterday off the coast of Venezuela. The individuals involved in the attack are believed to be part of a drug trafficking operation utilizing a semi-submersible vessel to transport illicit substances.
According to the US Navy, the capture of the two survivors came after a brief but intense confrontation with the suspected drug sub. The Navy stated that the operation was conducted in accordance with international law to combat illegal smuggling activities in the region. The two captured individuals are currently in custody and will be subjected to a thorough investigation.
The Venezuelan government has condemned the US military operation, labeling it as a violation of its sovereignty. Venezuelan officials have accused the US of acting unilaterally and without authorization in its territorial waters. They have called for an independent investigation into the incident and urged the US to respect international norms and protocols.
The captured individuals are believed to be part of a larger criminal network involved in drug trafficking in the region. The motives behind the attack on the drug sub and the specific objectives of the individuals involved remain unclear at this time.
The US Navy has reaffirmed its commitment to working with regional partners to combat illegal drug trafficking and ensure the security and stability of the area. The incident underscores the ongoing challenges posed by transnational criminal organizations operating in the region and the need for continued cooperation among international stakeholders to address these threats.
