Trump says 3 killed in second strike on alleged Venezuelan drug traffickers

President Donald Trump said the U.S. military conducted a second strike on what he described as "violent drug trafficking cartels" from Venezuela, killing three people in international waters.

Trump said he ordered the strike and no U.S. forces were harmed.

Those targeted were "transporting illegal narcotics," Trump said in a social media post.

"BE WARNED — IF YOU ARE TRANSPORTING DRUGS THAT CAN KILL AMERICANS, WE ARE HUNTING YOU!" he wrote.

The U.S. military also killed 11 alleged Tren da Aragua members aboard a suspected drug boat originating from Venezuela in the southern Caribbean on Sept. 2.
