A large-scale operation recently carried out at the Georgian customs has drawn international attention. Acting on a critical tip-off from Iran, Georgian police quickly mobilized and intercepted a suspicious truck at the border.
A detailed inspection revealed a significant amount of illegal drugs. However, the most striking detail of the operation was the discovery of a hidden GPS tracking device concealed among the narcotics. Thanks to this device, the exact route, origin, and possible connections of the shipment were identified in a short time.
Officials confirmed that the operation was successfully executed following the Iranian intelligence tip, which indicated links to an international trafficking network. The truck driver was detained on-site, and legal proceedings have been initiated against him. The Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs announced that the investigation extends beyond the country’s borders and involves multiple international partners.
Authorities stated that Georgia will strengthen border security measures and expand cooperation with international organizations to prevent similar smuggling attempts in the future.
📍 This incident once again highlights the crucial importance of international intelligence sharing and cross-border security cooperation.
