US EditionSenate to Investigate Hegseth's Alleged 'Kill Everybody' Order
Bipartisan committees investigate Defense Secretary Hegseth's alleged order to kill all on a drug boat; over 80 killed in 21 strikes since September, raising legal and ethical concerns.
- After a Washington Post report, the Senate Armed Services Committee directed inquiries to the Pentagon and vowed to determine the facts, according to Sen. Roger Wicker.
- The Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel has argued that drug networks are part of a 'non-international armed conflict,' and military and civilian lawyers reviewed the operations.
- Officials with direct knowledge told the Post that Hegseth gave a verbal directive and Adm. Frank M. 'Mitch' Bradley ordered a follow-on strike to fulfill that directive, killing 11 people on a small vessel off the coast of Trinidad during the Sept. 2 strike.
- Earlier this week, 13 Democratic senators demanded declassification and experts warned the strikes may be unlawful, leaving families of the dead without answers.
- The campaign marks a notable shift in U.S. counterdrug missions in the Western Hemisphere as Pentagon protocols emphasize rescuing survivors, while legal commentators warn prosecutions could follow amid limited oversight.

Those expected to stay on top of these things -- military oversight, congressional committees, etc. -- found they were even further behind the curve than the late-arriving "justification" for extrajudicial killings of…
Global Outcry as US Escalates Military Threats Against Venezuela
