Breaking News: Trump Accuses Boat Crews of Narco-Terrorism, AP Uncovers Complex Reality
President Donald Trump has accused boat crews of being narco-terrorists and cartel members, allegedly smuggling deadly drugs to American communities. However, an investigation by the Associated Press reveals a more nuanced reality.
At least 60 people, including a fisherman, a career criminal, a former military cadet, and a down-on-his-luck bus driver, have been killed since early September in US military attacks on boats in the Caribbean. The AP has identified four of the victims and pieced together details about their lives.
The victims had little in common, but all were from Venezuelan seaside hometowns. They were not the narco-terrorists Trump claimed, but ordinary people struggling to make a living. The AP's findings raise questions about the accuracy of Trump's allegations.
The US military's actions in the Caribbean have sparked concern and outrage. The AP's investigation is ongoing, and more details are expected to emerge in the coming days. This is a developing story, and we will provide updates as more information becomes available.
