The successful operation involved the Narcotics and Smuggling Directorate, the Regional Narcotics Task Force, and the Central Port Authority of Piraeus' Security Office, in collaboration with the US Homeland Security Investigations at the US embassy in Athens.
The drugs, hidden in the refrigeration unit of a banana container shipped from Ecuador, were discovered in 30 packages, amounting to a total gross weight of 34.35 kilograms. Two additional containers were inspected, but no further narcotics were found.
Authorities are continuing their investigation to identify and apprehend the intended recipients of the shipment.
