U.S. has admitted to killing unidentified civilians in a series of illegal extrajudicial boat strikes in the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean under orders from the Trump administration. Officials conceded they did not know the identities of the victims and lacked evidence to prosecute any survivors, acknowledging that at least 62 civilians were killed. While Washington has defended the strikes as part of a “non-international armed conflict,” both Democratic and Republican lawmakers — including Sara Jacobs and Rand Paul — condemned them as unlawful extrajudicial killings. UN experts have also denounced the attacks as violations of international law.
