Australia Seizes 2.3 Tons of Cocaine Worth $1 Billion After Boat Breakdown
Dec 2, 2024, 02:52 AM
Australian authorities have carried out the largest cocaine seizure in the nation's history, confiscating 2.3 tons of the drug with an estimated street value of up to $1 billion. The operation led to the arrest of 13 individuals, including 11 men and two youths. The record-breaking bust followed a boat breakdown off the coast of K'gari, Queensland, which played a critical role in uncovering the smuggling operation. The Australian Federal Police coordinated the effort, successfully thwarting an alleged attempt to import the massive quantity of cocaine into the country.
