A Royal Navy Coast Guard on maritime patrol in the Mediterranean aborted a drug trafficking operation, early Wednesday, following the interception of a boat loaded with drugs off the coast of Jebha, according to a military source.

This operation led to the arrest of two Moroccan nationals and the seizure of 54 bundles of cannabis resin, totaling 2 tons, the same source added.

The cargo, the seized material and the traffickers were taken to the Marina-Smir port and handed over to the Gendarmerie Royale for the usual legal procedures.
