The UAE’s National Anti-Narcotics Agency, working in coordination with Dubai Police and Saudi Arabia’s General Directorate of Drug Control, has intercepted 267,300 amphetamine tablets and arrested all members of the criminal network involved in the attempt.
The operation was driven by intelligence sharing between the two countries’ security services. According to the agency, the consignment was seized before it reached distribution, with those arrested described as being of a single Arab nationality.
The National Anti-Narcotics Agency said the outcome reflected operational integration between UAE security bodies and their regional and international counterparts, combining field monitoring, information exchange and joint coordination to disrupt trafficking networks.
Saudi Arabia’s General Directorate of Drug Control said the operation fell within a framework of continuous cooperation with the UAE on drug enforcement, and affirmed the Kingdom’s commitment to sustained coordination with partner states in tracking criminal activity targeting communities and young people.
