Congress Investigates US Military Strikes in Caribbean

Republican-led Congressional committees are investigating US military boat strikes in the Caribbean, following a Washington Post report of a second attack ordered to kill everybody on board. Despite Defense Secretary Pete Hegseths denial and President Trumps support, the report cites a spoken directive for the second strike. Lawmakers from both parties express concern, suggesting potential war crimes if true. The Senate and House Armed Services Committees have launched inquiries. Hegseth maintains lawfulness, while Trump expresses disapproval and plans to look into the matter. Venezuela condemns the strikes and vows its own investigation. The Daily News Now! — Every city.
