Shafaq News- Al-Muthanna
Security forces seized 21 kilograms of captagon pills in the
desert of Al-Muthanna after smugglers sent the shipment from Syria into Iraq
using a balloon, a security source told Shafaq News on Friday.
Authorities transferred the confiscated drugs to a secure
facility and opened an investigation to track down the networks involved in the
smuggling operation.
Earlier this week, Iraqi border forces seized 154 kg of
narcotics, including 893,000 pills, after intercepting aerial smuggling
attempts along the western border in Al-Anbar.
