Footage: Russia seizes ton of EU-bound cocaine

The Russian Federal Security Service has announced that it has seized over a ton of cocaine and has disrupted the drug supply route from Latin America to the EU via Russia. The traffickers were apprehended near the Latvian border, the agency said.

Last month, FSB agents spotted a suspicious truck in Leningrad Region and placed it under surveillance. They later discovered that the vehicle had been used to stash drugs.

The agency said it had arrested two smugglers, both citizens of a Balkan country. A video shared by the FSB showed agents storming a hangar where two men, apparently unaware of the raid, can be seen standing in the back of a cargo truck. The FSB said the suspects were caught red-handed while loading 984 packages of cocaine, each weighing one kilogram, into a cache.
