In a significant bust, the US Coast Guard intercepted a high-speed boat in the Eastern Pacific, seizing over 20,000 pounds of cocaine. Helicopter snipers disabled the vessel’s engines, a tactic crucial to Operation Pacific Viper, which has already netted substantial drug hauls. This operation is part of a broader crackdown on Latin American drug cartels.
