Trump Said US Will ‘Soon’ Do Land Strikes on Drug Traffickers

President Donald Trump suggested the Pentagon will soon start targeting drug cartels with strikes on land in Venezuela and beyond, after a campaign that has mainly focused on alleged trafficking vessels in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific Ocean.

“We’re going to start doing those strikes on land, you know, the land is much easier, it’s much easier, and we know the routes they take,” Trump said on Tuesday at the White House, adding that the US would start land strikes “very soon.”
