WATCH:
The US military has conducted more than 65 lethal strikes on narco-vessels since last year.
Last month, the US Coast Guard took out three narco-terrorist vessels carrying nearly $45.8 million worth of illicit narcotics near Colombia.
A Coast Guard sniper fired on the drug boats.
“US Coast Guard Southeast crews aboard CGC Tahoma and an embarked helicopter seized approximately 6,085 pounds of cocaine worth nearly $45.8 million Saturday after stopping three vessels off the coast of Colombia,” USCG said.
“The interdiction required disabling fire after warning shots proved ineffective,” they said.
