Drones, a blue ship and unanswered questions: Ecuadorian fishermen recount deadly Pacific attacks
Two Ecuadorian fishing boats were sunk by explosive-laden drones in March off the Galápagos; survivors describe a blue ‘ghost ship’ and drones dropping bombs, with armed, English-speaking men detaining them before repatriation by Salvadoran authorities. The incident has drawn US security attention amid unverified reports of a CIA program; Washington denies involvement and CNN could not verify the claim. Investigations continue to determine who attacked the vessels, with a missing boat Fiorella noted earlier.
