Washington, USA – US minister of Defense Pete Hegseth announced that US forces carried out three precision military strikes.

Four ships were targeted in the eastern Pacific Ocean,

This is part of what he described as “preemptive operations to protect American interest

s and ensure the security of international navigation.”

The US minister of Defense explained that the strikes came

after suspicious movements of the targeted ships were detected.
