U.S. Airstrikes in Latin America and the Caribbean: A Call to Action
Air strikes in Latin America and the Caribbean have resulted in the deaths of at least 57 people since early September, sparking concerns over their legality.
According to Amnesty International, these airstrikes are illegal, and Congress must take immediate action to stop the U.S. government from carrying out further bombings.
"In the last two months, the U.S. military's Southern Command has gone on a murder spree by following the Trump administration's illegal orders," said Daphne Eviatar, Amnesty International USA's Director for Human Rights and Security.
The organization emphasizes that the administration has not provided evidence of the alleged crimes of the victims, nor has it named them.
Amnesty International remains committed to its independence, refusing funding from governments or political organizations to ensure objective and impartial campaigning.
