General Khaled Eid, head of the Department, informed that three million Captagon pills and 50 kilograms of hashish, belonging to a drug trafficking network operating between Lebanon and Syria through illegal border crossings, were seized.

We ambushed a route used by the network, which led to an armed confrontation with the traffickers, who managed to flee by abandoning a vehicle laden with drugs, he said.

The head of the Anti-Narcotics Department stated in previous statements that Syria is committed to fighting this scourge that has affected the country’s society and youth during the war.
