A significant drugs interdiction operation is underway in County Cork, where authorities have seized a large quantity of suspected controlled substances.
The seizure took place in the Courtmacsherry area as part of an intelligence-led operation involving multiple agencies under the Joint Task Force (JTF), which includes An Garda Síochána, Revenue’s Customs Service, the Irish Naval Service, and the Irish Air Corps.
While the exact quantity and estimated street value of the drugs have yet to be confirmed, officials describe the haul as substantial.
Two men, aged in their 30s and 40s, have been arrested on suspicion of involvement in organised crime. They are currently being held at a Garda station in County Cork under ongoing investigations.
This large-scale operation highlights continued efforts by Irish authorities to tackle organised criminal activity and drug trafficking, particularly along coastal routes.
As the investigation is ongoing, no further details have been released at this time. Authorities say updates will follow in due course.
