Another strike on the high seas — and this time, it’s sparking outrage. US forces have killed four people in what officials describe as a “narco-terror” operation off the coast of Venezuela.

El Capitan, Yosemite’s towering granite wall, has claimed another life—this time that of 23-year-old Alaskan climber and TikTok influencer Balin Miller.
