EUROPOL helped to dismantle four major criminal networks responsible for fueling the flow of drugs into the EU and Trkiye, following a series of coordinated raids. These results were made possible by the continued exploitation of encrypted communication platforms, including Sky ECC and ANOM. A total of 232 suspects have been arrested, including High Value Targets who played a pivotal role in drug trafficking and money laundering operations. Over EUR 300 million worth of assets were seized in Trkiye and Europe, including 681 properties and 127 vehicles. These criminal organizations " each operating independently but collectively wielding immense power " had established themselves as dominant players in the European drug trade.
