Drug Interdiction Efforts

Sri Lankan Navy continues to intercept drug shipments, with recent seizures of heroin and cocaine from fishing vessels. These operations demonstrate ongoing maritime law enforcement activities.

Apparently, drug smugglers think fishing boats are the ultimate stealth mode – because nothing says "totally not suspicious" like cruising around with more packets than a UPS warehouse during holiday season. Meanwhile, law enforcement is out here playing maritime whack-a-mole, turning ocean routes into the world's most expensive game of "catch me if you can."
