Spanish Authorities Seize Massive 11 Tons of Cocaine Linked to Albanian Mafia

TL;DR Summary
Spanish police have seized 11 tonnes of cocaine in two separate operations, marking the largest seizure ever made in Galicia, Spain. The drugs, imported by Albanian criminal organizations, came from Colombia via Ecuador and were found in containers in the ports of Vigo and Valencia. Twenty individuals, mostly Albanians, were arrested in connection with the operations. The seizures highlight the power of the Balkan cartel and the increasing influence of Albanian mafias in drug trafficking, which now control the transport of drugs from Latin America to Europe.
