US Southern Command: On September 2, in accordance with the instructions of General Francis L. Donovan, commander of the US Southern Command, and in collaboration with the Ecuadorian government, the Western Hemisphere Joint Task Force successfully intercepted a ship that acts as an offshore floating gas station to support illegal maritime drug smuggling activities in international waters of the Eastern Pacific. Intelligence confirmed that the ship provided operational support for the violent drug terrorist organization “Los Joneros”. The US Marines and Navy personnel dispatched from the amphibious dock carrier “San Antonio” intercepted, boarded, searched, and cleared the ship. There were no accidents throughout the process. The people on board were safely handed over to the Ecuadorian authorities. After completing the relevant disposal, the US military sank the ship. This interception knocked out a key point in the logistics chain of drug traffickers and helped the American Anti-Cartel Coalition and the Western Hemisphere Joint Task Force to dismantle the goal of the drug trafficking terrorist organization's network. The US Department of Defense and the American Anti-Cartel Coalition will unswervingly carry out missions to crack down on drug traffickers in the Western Hemisphere and protect the country's homeland security.
