The U.S. military said it struck a ​vessel in the Eastern Pacific, killing three people.

The U.S. Southern Command alleged that the vessel was ​operated by "Designated Terrorist Organizations" that it did not ​identify.

It added that no U.S. military forces were ⁠harmed. It described those killed as "male narco-terrorists," without offering ​details.

U.S. President Donald Trump's administration has been striking vessels that it accuses of transporting narcotics.

The U.S. military's strikes ​on such vessels ​have killed ⁠more than 170 people since September, according to Reuters.
