The Pentagon’s most elite troops have been dispatched to nearly 70% of the world’s countries in 2015, according to a report. It says US soldiers are “practicing night raids or sometimes conducting them for real… sometimes actually gunning down enemies from afar.”

The US special operations soldiers are carrying out missions in up to 90 nations every day, TomDispatch reported, citing a spokesman for Special Operations Command (SOCOM), Ken McGraw.
