Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly is pushing for hearings on a controversial U.S. boat strike off the coast of Venezuela as military officials briefed lawmakers behind closed doors on Capitol Hill Thursday about the situation that has led to concerns about possible war crimes.

Kelly, a retired Navy Captain who sits on the Armed Services Committee, was not in Thursday’s briefing but has been calling for a full investigation into the September strike that killed suspected drug smugglers.

Lawmakers who attended Thursday’s briefing walked away split along party lines on what they saw. Republicans defended the deadly strike against suspected drug smugglers. Democrats say it crossed the line.
