Wat we eerst wisten
- Hegseth publicly committed to expansion. Human Rights Watch reported vessel destruction and mass detention off Ecuador.
Toen nog open
- Specific Ecuador raid outcomes, full mission authority, individual custody outcomes and independently verified cocaine-flow benefits remain unresolved.
Waar we op zouden letten
- Watch for disclosure of mission rules, target evidence, custody records and a defined comparison behind the trafficking estimate. No dated operation or public briefing is established.
