Kuwaiti law enforcement recently apprehended 23 individuals involved in drug trafficking and possession following a series of coordinated operations. The arrests, which stemmed from 12 distinct cases, were the result of extensive surveillance and detailed investigative work conducted by the General Directorate for Drug Control. During these raids, authorities successfully confiscated a variety of narcotics and psychotropic substances prepared for both personal consumption and illicit trade.

Beyond the drugs themselves, officials seized incriminating evidence including packaging materials, sensitive weighing scales, ammunition, and cash suspected to be profits from illegal drug sales. The Ministry of Interior emphasized that these arrests are part of an aggressive, ongoing campaign against narcotics in the country. Security officials have made it clear that they remain committed to this crackdown, vowing zero tolerance for anyone caught trafficking, distributing, or using controlled substances.
