Ecuador backs US drug interdictions
The American forces, as part of an anti-drug trafficking campaign, sank three Ecuadorian ships in the Pacific Ocean. This action sparked protests from the crews’ families, who claimed that the ships were solely engaged in fishing and that the operations took place within Ecuadorian waters, with no clear evidence of drug smuggling. The Ecuadorian government expressed its support for the campaign, stating that joint investigations with Washington revealed the ships’ involvement in illegal activities. However, family members of the crew criticized the official narrative, insisting that the operations targeted vessels engaged in legitimate activities. These actions are part of a broader American effort aimed at targeting maritime smuggling boats in the region, with video footage capturing the sinking of one of the ships.
