Summary

The Colombian navy intercepted a semi-submersible carrying cocaine in the Pacific, uncovering a new smuggling route to Australia.

The vessel, capable of traveling thousands of miles without refueling, was part of a lucrative operation targeting Australia, where cocaine fetches six times the U.S. price.

This was the third such vessel seized, with maps confirming the route.

The operation, part of the multinational “Orion” initiative, seized 225 tonnes of cocaine and arrested over 400 people globally.

Colombian authorities highlighted links between South American and Oceanian crime networks.

    I’m afraid that “repeating word-of-mouth information until it’s disproven” isn’t how the scientific method works, and wouldn’t be considered rigorous in the research community. I look forward to your findings.

      WHEN a working-psychiatrist, who did research in psychiatry, tells me that LSD can be stored in bodyfat & released later,

      I believe them before I believe you.

      There’s a category difference between “I heard it from someone” & being told by a specialist who works in that field, but obviously you contempt that…

      Good for you.
