2.3 tons of cocaine seized at the Ecuador border
On August 28, 2025, an unexpected incident occurred at the Ecuador border. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Two fuel tankers transporting gasoline from Colombia passed through the Ecuador border. However, during an inspection conducted by the police, it was discovered that the drivers were carrying not gasoline, but 2.3 tons of cocaine.

This event once again demonstrated how seriously the fight against drug trafficking is being conducted in South America. Recently, several countries in the region have been intensifying measures against smuggling and drug trafficking.

For example, the Venezuelan government has deployed military ships to the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Venezuela in order to reduce illegal trade and the activities of armed groups in border areas with Colombia. Additionally, the United States announced that it has sent military vessels to the southern part of the Caribbean Sea to reduce the influence of drug cartels.

Experts believe that such operations play a crucial role in stopping the flow of drugs. However, there is a risk that drug cartels will seek new routes and methods to continue their activities.

This major seizure in Ecuador sparked widespread discussion among the public and once again emphasized the necessity of strengthening cooperation between countries. International cooperation is of great importance in the fight against drug trafficking.
