Information received concerning (1) an order reportedly signed by the United States President in August 2025 authorizing the U.S. Department of Defense to use military force, in foreign territory or international waters, against Latin American drug cartels recently designated by the U.S. Government as foreign terrorist organizations; and (2) the apparent U.S. military operation targeting a vessel carrying 11 people in international waters, allegedly for carrying illicit narcotics from Venezuela towards the U.S.. We are concerned that these measures may involve serious violations of the right to life under international human rights law, and potentially of other international obligations.
Alleged victims: 11
