78 de arestări într-o rețea de trafic din Mediterana. Cum acționa? Anunțul Europol • Newsweek România

Europol announced the dismantling of a major Mediterranean trafficking network, resulting in 78 arrests. The operation, led by Spanish authorities with support from Europol and police from France, Portugal, and Poland, targeted a group involved in drug, arms, and migrant trafficking. The network utilized a fleet of high-speed boats for illegal activities, charging up to €12,000 per migrant. Investigators seized significant quantities of drugs and weapons during the operation, highlighting the group's extensive logistical organization and connections to other criminal networks across Europe. The case illustrates the overlap between drug trafficking and migrant smuggling operations.
