2023-11-30
[AFRICANEWS] Senegal's military has seized more than three tonnes of cocaine from a ship moored off the coast, in one of the country's largest drugs hauls.
"General, it was 3 tonnes 20 lbs 4 baggies"
The navy made the announcement on Tuesday, saying that the ship was seized on Sunday night in international waters, with 10 crew on board, one of whom was Senegalese.

The vessel was then escorted to the Admiral Faye Gassama Naval Base in the capital Dakar on Tuesday for "identification and logging of the seized products".

The navy did not provide further details.
