The last US strike on a boat — that the Trump Administration says is another drug-trafficking vessel — was three weeks ago.
Thursday was the first US military strike on ships in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific Ocean since the start of the coalition in September, killing 87 people.
Earlier this week, the family of a Colombian man killed in a strike on a boat in the Caribbean led the Human Rights Watch, arguing the man’s death was a homicide.
The complaint filed by the American human rights lawyer Daniel Kovalik, on behalf of the family of Alejandro Carranza, says that he was killed after the US military in September Gadi, and that his death violated human rights conventions.
The strike that killed Carranza also killed two others. At the time, when reporters were being questioned about the evidence of criminal activity on board, Trump told reporters that bags of cocaine and fentanyl had been found floating in the ocean.
No evidence of floating bags was presented.
Carranza’s lawyer also says that the family cannot get the necessary resources to get extradition to Colombia, and they have received death threats from cool groups that enter the country to denounce the death of their loved one.
