【独家报道】 五角大楼最新解密图像显示了海上疑似走私毒品的船只，其中包括装载有明显毒品的船只。
这批图像发布之际，美国国防部警告贩毒分子，美国将继续追捕威胁美国民众的人员。特朗普政府去年开始打击疑似贩毒船只，至今已近一年。
“首次打击至今已近一年，我们对毒品恐怖分子的警告始终不变：只要你贩运致命的非法毒品并威胁美国民众，我们就会追捕你，找到你，并且消灭你，”五角大楼新闻秘书金斯利·威尔逊在发给福克斯新闻数字频道的一份声明中说道。
这些照片拍摄于2025年10月27日、10月29日和12月4日，显示这些船只在美国军方的监视下在公海高速行驶。

“‘南方利剑行动’已摧毁贩毒网络，迫使贩毒分子调整作案手段，抓获危险的毒品恐怖分子，并向世界证明美国将动用一切合法工具保卫国土、保护民众，”威尔逊说道。
五角大楼告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，该行动已实施67次打击，包括2025年9月2日的首次打击。

最近的一次打击发生在8月25日，美国南方司令部称，加勒比海一条已知贩毒航线的一艘快艇上的四名涉嫌毒贩被击毙。
“经确认的情报显示，该船只积极参与贩毒活动，”南方司令部在X平台的帖子中写道，并称此次行动是由西半球联合特遣部队在弗朗西斯·L·多诺万将军的指挥下实施的。

“西半球联合特遣部队将继续针对贩毒集团实施精准、致命的行动，”多诺万在该帖子引用的一份声明中说道。“我们将追捕、破坏并击溃这些毒品恐怖主义网络。”
“南方司令部决心消除该地区乃至美国本土的贩毒集团恐怖主义与暴力活动，”他补充道。

在加勒比海袭击发生数天前，美军称在东太平洋的一艘船只打击行动中造成两人死亡。这是两个多月来首次有报道的打击行动。X平台上发布的一段视频显示，一艘看似正在行驶的船只随后屏幕被闪光填满。
自去年9月首次打击以来，特朗普政府已针对大西洋和太平洋上的疑似贩毒船只实施打击，称这些船只搭载了毒品。
特朗普总统的毒品管控战略为彻底终结毒品危机指明道路
特朗普将这场斗争描述为与拉丁美洲贩毒集团的“武装冲突”，并辩称这些打击行动对于阻止毒品流入美国社区、遏制致命过量用药事件至关重要。
本届政府还在与盟友国家达成协议，以将其行动范围扩展至多个人拉丁美洲国家的陆地领域。
美国战争部长皮特·赫格斯瑟斯本月在巴拿马访问期间表示，哥伦比亚、危地马拉和洪都拉斯已同意允许美国在其领土上开展针对犯罪集团的联合行动，不过危地马拉否认达成了此类协议。厄瓜多尔已于3月与美国启动类似任务。

EXCLUSIVE –Newly unclassified Pentagon images show suspected drug-smuggling boats at sea, including vessels loaded with apparent narcotics.
The images come as the department warned traffickers that the U.S. will continue hunting down those who threaten Americans, nearly a year after the Trump administration began striking suspected drug-trafficking vessels.
“Nearly one year after the first strike, the message to narco-terrorists remains unchanged: if you traffic deadly illicit narcotics and threaten the American people, we hunt you down, we will find you, and we will kill you,” Pentagon press secretary Kingsley Wilson said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital.
The photos, dated Oct. 27, Oct. 29 and Dec. 4, 2025, show the boats speeding through open water under U.S. military surveillance.

“Operation Southern Spear has disrupted trafficking networks, forced trafficker adaptations, removed dangerous narcoterrorists, and demonstrated that the United States will use every lawful tool available to defend our Homeland and protect our communities,” Wilson said.
The Pentagon told Fox News Digital the operation has carried out 67 strikes, including the first strike on Sept. 2, 2025.

One of the most recent strikes came Aug. 25, when U.S. Southern Command said four alleged drug smugglers were killed aboard a fast boat operating along known trafficking routes in the Caribbean.
“Confirmed intelligence revealed the vessel’s active involvement in narco-trafficking,” SOUTHCOM wrote in a post on X, saying the operation was carried out by Joint Task Force Western Hemisphere under the direction of Gen. Francis L. Donovan.

“Joint Task Force Western Hemisphere continues executing precise, lethal operations against the cartels,” Donovan said in a statement quoted in the post. “We will hunt, disrupt, and defeat these narco-terrorist networks.”
“SOUTHCOM is resolved to neutralizing cartel terror and violence throughout the region and into the U.S. homeland,” he added.

Days before the Caribbean strike, the U.S. military said two people were killed in a strike on a vessel in the Eastern Pacific. That was the first reported strike in more than two months. A video posted to X showed what appeared to be a moving boat before a flash filled the screen.
Since the first strike last September, the Trump administration has targeted suspected cartel vessels in the Atlantic and Pacific that it says were carrying narcotics.
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S DRUG CONTROL STRATEGY SETS THE PATH TO END THE DRUG CRISIS FOR GOOD
Trump has described the fight as an “armed conflict” with cartels in Latin America and has argued the attacks are necessary to stop drugs from reaching American communities and fueling fatal overdoses.
The administration is also pursuing agreements with allied nations that could extend its campaign onto land in multiple Latin American countries.
War Secretary Pete Hegseth said during a visit to Panama this month that Colombia, Guatemala and Honduras had agreed to allow the U.S. to conduct joint operations against criminal groups on their soil, though Guatemala denied an agreement had been reached. Ecuador began similar missions with the U.S. in March.
