Auxiliary Forces stationed on the coastal strip of the Akhfenir community foiled on Monday an attempt to smuggle a significant amount of the drug Shira, destined for the Spanish coast.

According to Hespress AR security sources, the field teams spotted two bundles of drugs, each weighing about 25 kilograms, to seize a total of 50 kilograms during this operation.

The same sources confirmed that the Royal Gendarmerie elements immediately launched intensive investigations to uncover the circumstances of the operation and identify the perpetrators and the networks involved, under the supervision of the competent public prosecutor’s office.

This operation comes within the framework of the ongoing security efforts to secure the southern coasts and combat drug smuggling networks and irregular migration operations, after the auxiliary forces managed last week to thwart a larger attempt by seizing 1,600 kilograms of Shira drug and arresting two people pending investigation.
