Trump Releases Footage: U.S. Attack Destroys “Drug-Carrying Submarine” in the Caribbean

Breaking Operation Shuts Down Major Drug Route

In a dramatic military operation this week, former President Donald Trump confirmed that U.S. forces destroyed a “very large drug-carrying submarine” in the

Caribbean Sea, killing two suspected narco-terrorists and capturing two others.

Trump, who released official video footage of the strike on Truth Social, said the vessel was transporting “fentanyl and other narcotics”

toward U.S. shores on a notorious trafficking route.

“Under my watch, the United States will not tolerate narcoterrorists trafficking illegal drugs, by land or by sea,” Trump declared.

He claimed the operation

prevented up to 25,000 overdose deaths and confirmed no U.S. forces were injured.

🛥️ Details of the Military Strike

According to Fox News, two survivors from the submarine were

rescued by the U.S. Navy and are being held aboard an American warship. Trump’s announcement provided the first confirmation of their identities and nationalities.

This marks the sixth drug-submarine interdiction

since U.S. combat operations intensified in the region last month.
The Pentagon has not disclosed the mission’s codename, but sources suggest a broader anti-narcotics campaign tied to regional intelligence operations.

During a meeting at the White House with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Trump said:

“We attacked a submarine built specifically for transporting massive amounts of drugs.”

🧭 U.S. Strategy Expands in the Caribbean

Earlier this week, Trump authorized CIA operations in the area, while U.S. Air Force B-52 bombers conducted a visible “show of force” near Venezuelan waters.
Officials describe the move as part of a

larger anti-fentanyl initiative, combining intelligence, naval, and air surveillance assets.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed additional details would be released “in due time.”

💊 The Fentanyl Crisis and Political Repercussions

Fentanyl — much of it manufactured in Mexico with chemicals supplied by China — remains one of the leading causes of death among Americans aged 18 to 34.

In 2023,

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene proposed legislation imposing the death penalty for smugglers, tweeting:

“300 Americans are murdered each day by fentanyl. It’s time to hold those criminals accountable.”

Similarly,

Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) introduced the Death Penalty for Dealing Fentanyl Act of 2022, advocating life imprisonment or capital punishment for convicted traffickers.

“More Americans have died from drug poisoning than in all U.S. combat losses combined since 1775,” Gosar stated.

🧨 Political Fallout and Border Debate

The border crisis has become a key political flashpoint heading into the 2025 election season.
Republican lawmakers argue that Biden’s immigration policies

have allowed a deadly flow of drugs across the southern border — including 7,700 pounds of fentanyl seized in just the first five months of 2022.

Trump’s decisive military strike, according to supporters, demonstrates

“a return to strong borders and strong action.”
Critics, however, warn that expanding military operations could escalate regional tensions.

⚖️ A Defining Moment in U.S. Drug Policy

The destruction of the narco-submarine underscores Trump’s

aggressive stance on narcoterrorism and his continued influence on U.S. drug enforcement policy.
Analysts say the move signals a broader shift toward militarized interdiction efforts, merging national security strategy with domestic anti-drug policy.

“This is about saving American lives,” Trump said. “We will hunt them down — wherever they hide.”

As investigations continue, global reactions remain mixed — with allies applauding the operation and critics questioning the escalation of U.S. force in international waters.
