The European Police Organization "Europol" revealed that international cooperation, in which the United Arab Emirates (UAE) participated, led to the overthrow of the largest criminal organization for drug trafficking in Europe known as the "Super Cartel".

"Sky News," said that, according to Europol, the operation against the criminal organization took place with the cooperation of 6 countries; The UAE, the United States of America (USA), France, Belgium, Spain, and the Netherlands (Holland).

The extensive operation resulted in the arrest of 49 suspects and 6 leaders who run drug smuggling and promotion networks and operations in various regions of Europe.

The success of the operation was the culmination of joint investigations between the six countries after the most dangerous drug gangs in Europe formed a criminal organization called the "Super Cartel" that manages about a third of cocaine trade operations in Europe.

The simultaneous and coordinated raids covered all parts of Europe and the UAE, while investigations revealed the organization's involvement in importing cocaine to Europe.
