In a significant crackdown on organized crime, Irish authorities have intercepted a massive cocaine shipment valued at approximately €10.5 million (£9.1 million) at Rosslare Europort in County Wexford, Republic of Ireland. The operation, conducted by An Garda Síochána (Irish police) in collaboration with the Revenue’s customs service, was part of an intelligence-led initiative targeting serious criminal activities. During the search of a truck and trailer unit arriving from Europe, officials uncovered an intricate lead-lined compartment concealed within the vehicle’s fuel tank. Inside, they discovered around 150 kilograms of cocaine. A man in his 50s, believed to be involved in the drug trade, was arrested and remains in custody. This seizure highlights the ongoing efforts by Irish law enforcement to combat the illegal drugs trade and disrupt organized crime networks.
