Major drugs bust off #Libyan coast

TRIPOLI — The Libyan coastguard has seized some 30,000 kg of drugs, on a boat off the Libyan coast.

A spokesman from the Navy, Ayub Gacem, said that the Libyan-flagged boat, Bab Bahr, was boarded by the authorities some 60 km northeast of the Bouri oil field, according to Libyan news agency LANA.

Five people were arrested on board, a Libyan, an Egyptian, a Tunisian and two Moroccans.

A source told the Libya Herald that the bust was the result of a ten-day investigation into a drug-smuggling gang, and that the boat was carrying 25 tons of hashish. — Libya Herald
