Iran's Border Guard Discovers Over A Tonne of Drugs Near Afghan Border

Commander Ahmadali Goodarzi of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Border Guard announced the discovery of one tonne and 230 kilogrammes of narcotics near the Afghan border.

As reported by IRNA, Goodarzi revealed that the narcotics were ingeniously concealed within a transit vehicle, which was subsequently identified and intercepted by Iranian authorities.

Goodarzi further detailed that the operation took place at the Milak border crossing, leading to the arrest of an individual implicated in the drug smuggling operation.

The seized narcotics were identified as hashish, carefully hidden within the vehicle, Goodarzi added.

This incident marks yet another significant narcotics discovery by the Iranian border guard along the Afghanistan border in recent months.
