Yesterday, joint detachments of the People’s National Army, following an ambush in the Arak area of Tamanrasset province in the Sixth Military Region, eliminated an armed smuggler. According to a statement from the Ministry of National Defense, the operation resulted in the recovery of two FMPK machine guns, a Kalashnikov-type submachine gun, and the seizure of a four-wheel-drive vehicle loaded with 1.5 million hallucinogenic tablets, a Thuraya satellite communication device, three magazines, and a quantity of ammunition.<\/p>\n

This brings the total amount of seized items to 3.1 million hallucinogenic tablets within two days.<\/p>\n
