The US military fired a drone against a ‘submersible’ drug smuggling vessel and apparently left two or three survivors.

Here’s the news:

 
Here’s more from Fox News:

A U.S. military drone strike in the Caribbean against a drug smuggling vessel Thursday left two to three survivors, a U.S. official tells Fox News.

The U.S. military launched search and rescue assets, including a rescue helicopter, but it is not clear if any of the survivors were rescued, the official said. The extent of their injuries was not immediately known, the official added.

As Reuters first reported, Thursday’s incident marks the first known instance of survivors since U.S. forces began its campaign of lethal strikes against suspected drug boats.

It is not clear how many crewmembers were on board.

Since this was a drone strike, I would imagine the submersible wasn’t all that deep. But then there is very little information to go on here.

I’ll update when we have more…
