Tensions are escalating in the Caribbean as US military strikes on alleged drug trafficking boats spark outrage across the region. The US Senate narrowly rejected a resolution aimed at limiting President Donald Trump's authority to launch such attacks, leaving him free to continue his controversial campaign. At least 21 people have died, and Colombia claims one vessel may have carried its citizens, a statement the White House called "baseless." Venezuela accuses Washington of using anti-drug operations as a cover for regime change and revealed an alleged "false flag" plot targeting the US Embassy. Military drills and fiery rhetoric signal rising stakes in the region.
