    A suspected smuggling vessel that went ablaze, as U.S. Coast Guard and Navy crews approached to intercept it, burns in international waters of the Eastern Pacific Ocean April 7, 2018. Four suspected smugglers who jumped from the vessel after it caught fire were rescued, the fire was extinguished and approximately 1,080 pounds of cocaine was removed from the hull before it was sunk as a hazard to navigation.

    An aerial photograph shows a military patrol vessel numbered '8' alongside what appears to be a semi-submersible or low-profile vessel that is on fire and covered in fire-suppression foam. Crew members aboard the military vessel are actively directing fire hoses at the burning target vessel. The scene depicts an active maritime interdiction or firefighting operation on open blue water.
    A USCG (United States Coast Guard) rigid inflatable boat with armed personnel in tactical gear approaches a vessel that is fully engulfed in flames on open water. The personnel appear to be conducting a rescue operation, as at least one civilian individual is visible being assisted at the bow of the USCG craft. Black smoke billows heavily from the burning vessel, which appears to be capsizing or sinking.
    A rigid inflatable boat (RIB) with orange hull markings and an American flag approaches a capsized or heavily damaged vessel in open ocean waters. Personnel aboard the RIB, some in tactical/military gear, appear to be conducting a maritime interdiction or rescue operation. A hose or line connects the two vessels, suggesting active engagement with the distressed craft.
    An aerial photograph shows a gray naval warship alongside a smaller vessel that is on fire and producing heavy smoke. A rigid inflatable boat (RIB) with personnel is visible on the starboard side of the warship. The scene appears to depict a maritime interdiction or law enforcement operation at sea.
