"A real blow against the cartels"/ Action on the high seas! US seizes
US seizes 34 tons of cocaine, 59 in custody

The United States has seized over 34 tons of cocaine in the eastern Pacific Ocean over the past two months, as part of Operation Pacific Viper – a joint intervention between the US Coast Guard and the US Navy, which aims to curb drug trafficking from South America.

Since its launch, the operation has led to 20 naval interventions, with an average of 820 kilograms of cocaine seized each day, as well as the arrest of 59 people suspected of drug trafficking. The US Department of Homeland Security has described the campaign as a “real blow against the cartels.”

Trump and the tough policy against cartels

This offensive comes in the wake of the tough approach promoted by Donald Trump to combat drug trafficking and organized crime. Coast Guard Deputy Chief Jeffrey Novak emphasized: “The results achieved with Operation Pacific Viper reflect our commitment to dismantling transnational criminal and terrorist organizations.”

The power and determination of the operation show that Washington is not content with stopping trafficking, but is advancing towards directly neutralizing narcoterrorist groups, including the fearsome Tren de Aragua organization, whose members have been killed in recent operations against naval vessels coming from Venezuela.

Intervention from the Galapagos to the Caribbean

Footage released by the Coast Guard shows the seizure of 2,500 kilograms of cocaine from a “low-profile” vessel northeast of the Galapagos Islands on September 10. The seizures illustrate the geographic scope of the operation, which covers thousands of kilometers of open sea. The strategy combines satellite monitoring, maritime intelligence and international cooperation, interdicting high-speed boats, semi-submarine craft and ships loaded with drugs destined for the US market.

Cooperation and continuity of the offensive

The Joint Interagency Task Force South, based in Florida, coordinates operations in cooperation with the US Southern Command and with police and maritime authorities of partner countries.

This international cooperation structure strengthens the United States' ability to target drug trafficking routes in the maritime corridor connecting South and North America. Officials have confirmed that Operation Pacific Viper will continue on an ongoing basis, with greater tactical engagement and expanded information sharing to neutralize new routes used by cartels.
