A US Marine Sikorsky CH-53K King Stallion helicopter flies at José Aponte de la Torre Airport on September 12, 2025, in Ceiba, Puerto Rico. In October, a warning was issued to Trinidadian fishermen about potential bombing by the US military during anti-narcotics operations in the Caribbean Sea. Two fishermen were killed in a US Navy airstrike targeting their boat as they left Venezuela for Trinidad. Eight American warships with over 4,500 Marines and sailors are stationed outside Venezuelan waters. The US has escalated its campaign against alleged "drug boats" in the Caribbean, conducting lethal airstrikes and designating drug cartels as terrorist organizations. The target of this campaign is Nicolás Maduro, president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, who has been accused of being a drug kingpin by the US Department of Justice.
