Dramatic footage shows U.S. strike that obliterated 'drug-carrying boat' off Venezuela, killing 11 Tren de Aragua 'narcoterrorists' | 2 Sept 2025 | President Trump shared dramatic footage of the U.S. military obliterating a boat carrying drugs and Tren de Aragua gangbangers off the coast of Venezuela on Tuesday. The video showed the small boat being blown out of international waters and exploding into flames after it was struck by a single missile, killing all aboard. Trump said the boat was occupied by 11 "Tren de Aragua Narcoterrorists" and was en route to the U.S. when it was blown to smithereens. "TDA is a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization, operating under the control of Nicolas Maduro, responsible for mass murder, drug trafficking, sex trafficking, and acts of violence and terror across the United States and Western Hemisphere," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
