The United States Department of War has released footage showing the destruction of a submarine carrying illegal drugs en route to the US.

President Donald Trump said the vessel, intercepted on a well-known narcotrafficking route, was loaded mostly with fentanyl and other narcotics. Four “narcoterrorists” were on board, he added, with two killed during the strike and the other two being returned to Ecuador and Colombia for prosecution.

Mr Trump said at least 25,000 Americans could have died if the submarine had reached US shores. He confirmed that no US forces were harmed during the operation.

The president described the strike as part of his administration’s ongoing effort to stop narcoterrorists trafficking drugs by land or sea.
