The United States has confirmed agents with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration have carried out another killing in Honduras. The DEA says two agents shot and killed a man who had made a “threatening gesture” after U.S. and Honduran agents converged on the site of a plane crash in eastern Honduras linked to drug smuggling. It was the second killing by U.S. agents inside Honduras in less than a month. In May, four civilians — including two pregnant women — were killed in a raid involving U.S. agents, although Honduran forces were said to have fired the fatal shots.
