Mexico’s navy intercepted a submarine carrying 3.5 tonnes of cocaine off the coast of Guerrero, dealing a major financial hit to drug traffickers.
Mexico’s navy has seized a submarine transporting approximately 3.5 tonnes of cocaine during a maritime patrol near Guerrero state, officials announced Thursday.
Three crew members were detained and, along with the confiscated drugs, turned over to the Attorney General’s Office for investigation and legal proceedings.
Authorities estimate the seizure dealt criminal groups an economic blow of around 846.5 million pesos, or $47 million.
The navy said the operation also prevented an estimated 7.2 million cocaine doses from reaching the public.
The interception is the latest in a series of maritime anti-narcotics efforts along Mexico’s Pacific coast.
