- Reported military strike — targets alleged to be traffickers
AP reported the deaths and noted that the administration described those targeted across the campaign as narcoterrorists. The source did not report a judicial determination of trafficking before the strike. It also revisited the disputed September follow-up strike; those separate allegations are preserved in their own record.
