A source familiar with the situation has told ABC News some pretty critical information that sheds light on *why* those survivors were targeted the second time. Apparently, after the first strike, two individuals managed to climb back aboard the wreckage. Now, according to this source, that act of getting back on the boat changed their status in the eyes of those who made the call to engage again. Why? Because they were no longer considered simply survivors clinging to life.

The source claims these individuals were believed to be potentially communicating with others nearby, and, crucially, that they were actively salvaging portions of the drug cargo that had been onboard. That's a key point. The implication here is that they weren't just trying to survive; they were actively continuing the mission, whatever that mission was. This is where it gets tricky, ethically and legally.

The source explained that because of these actions – climbing back on the boat, potential communication, and salvaging drugs – these individuals were deemed to be "still in the fight." That’s the phrase the source used: "still in the fight." And according to the rules as they were interpreted, that apparently made them valid targets for a second strike. Look, I’m not going to pretend I know all the ins and outs of maritime law or the specific rules of engagement in these types of operations. But I do know that the idea of targeting survivors, even alleged drug smugglers, raises some serious eyebrows. It's the kind of thing that demands scrutiny.

Of course, we have to remember this is just one source's account, and we are working to independently verify all of this information. There's always more to the story, and it's vital to get all sides represented before drawing any firm conclusions. We will continue to follow this developing story and bring you updates as soon as we have them. It’s a messy situation, and the truth is probably somewhere in the gray area. Stay tuned.
