Operation Orion, a cooperative operation between 62 countries, busted narco submarines carrying drugs
Colombian authorities, in a joint operation with 61 other countries, have uncovered a new drug trafficking route to Australia using “narco-submarines”, seizing 225 tonnes of cocaine, in a new global record for any single anti-narcotics operation.
In the six-week Operation Orion, law enforcement agencies halted six semi-submersible vessels stuffed with cocaine and confiscated 1,400 tonnes of drugs in total, including more than 1,000 tonnes of marijuana.
