The Republican chairman of the House Armed Services Committee said Tuesday that he planned to end an inquiry into a U.S. military strike that killed two survivors of an attack on their alleged drug smuggling vessel in early September.
Rep. Mike D. Rogers (Alabama) told reporters Tuesday that he had received all of the information he needed after launching the probe less than two weeks ago. A spokesperson for Rogers confirmed the congressman’s plans, though his timeline for winding things down was not clear.
