Large Criminal Activity

Major drug smuggling ring dismantled in Hadramout governorate

Yemeni authorities in Hadramout have dismantled a large drug smuggling network responsible for trafficking narcotics across the Arabian Sea and Red Sea border routes.

Yemeni security forces in Hadramout governorate have broken up an extensive drug‑smuggling ring that had been moving large quantities of narcotics into and across Yemen via maritime and desert routes. The operation, conducted over several days, resulted in multiple arrests, the seizure of tons of illicit drugs, and the confiscation of vehicles and boats used in trafficking. Officials say the network had ties to regional smuggling syndicates and exploited the country’s conflict‑weakened border controls. The crackdown is part of a broader campaign to curb organized crime and weapons smuggling in areas controlled by the internationally recognized government
