    A naval operation is underway in open ocean waters, showing a large modern warship in the background emitting black exhaust smoke from its stack. In the foreground, a small blue and white boat carries what appear to be armed personnel in military or tactical gear. A third vessel, likely a rigid inflatable boat (RIB), is visible between the two main vessels.
    Military personnel in camouflage uniforms are loading or unloading white bags and blue-wrapped packages through a doorway on what appears to be a naval vessel. One individual is wearing a white protective coverall suit and hard hat, while others wear tactical gear with gloves and face masks. The operation appears to be a coordinated transfer of seized or confiscated materials.
    Two military vessels are docked at a harbor pier under a partly cloudy blue sky. The foreground vessel is a U.S. Coast Guard cutter numbered 1114, displaying the distinctive red and blue diagonal stripe livery. In the background, a second warship marked 'F735' is moored nearby, consistent with a French Navy frigate designation.
