The suspects of the 2018 novichok nerve agent poisoning of Sergei and Yulia Skripal in Salisbury, England, have been linked to a 2014 blast in the Czech Republic that killed two people.
Czech police said Saturday that they were searching for two men "in connection with the investigation" of a 2014 explosion at an ammunition depot in Vrbetice, releasing images of the Salisbury suspects, Alexander Petrov and Ruslan Boshirov. Police added that the men are known to be carrying various passports, including Russian passports with Petrov and Boshirov's names.
A senior Justice Department official has told Congress that the Trump administration can continue lethal military strikes on alleged drug traffickers without congressional approval and that the administration is not bound by a decades-old war powers law, two congressional sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

The US military has killed 64 people in 15 strikes that have destroyed 16 boats as part of a campaign that Washington says is aimed at curtailing the flow of drugs into the United States. There have been three survivors of those strikes, two of whom were briefly detained by the US Navy before being returned to their home countries.
