The United States has intensified its anti-drug campaign in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific, carrying out more than 20 military strikes on suspected narcotics vessels, killing at least 90 people. The operations, ordered by President Trump, mark a major shift in how Washington tackles drug trafficking at sea and have raised serious legal questions.
