– Spanish police have seized four sailing boats packed with about 30 tons of hashish, in the country’s biggest drug bust at sea, Reuters reports. Nine Bulgarian and Russian citizens were arrested in the raid. “The logistical capacity of the Bulgarian criminal organizations’ top leaders engaged in drug trafficking in recreational vessels has been hit, preventing new routes from emerging or that they take advantage of the pandemic,” police said in a statement. Earlier this year, 4.6 tons of hashish were seized in two sailing boats from the same criminal group near the Balearic Islands.
