U.S. President Donald Trump announced that two survivors of a U.S. military strike on a suspected drug-trafficking semi-submersible in the Caribbean will be repatriated to Ecuador and Colombia for detention and prosecution. The vessel, described as "very large," was reportedly loaded with fentanyl and other illegal narcotics. This move enables the U.S. to bypass complex legal issues surrounding the military detention of suspected traffickers.
