Customs sources exclusively revealed to our source that Tunisian authorities seized 62 kilograms of cocaine that were smuggled via the Libyan side through the Ras Jedir border crossing over a period of 11 consecutive days.
The sources added that 26 kilograms were seized on January 23, 2026, 6 kilograms on January 31, 2026, and today, February 2, a quantity of 30 kilograms, attributing this to the absence of personnel assigned to inspection duties and anti-smuggling offices.
The sources confirmed that the smuggling attempts were repeated three times within a short period, reflecting a clear administrative failure and necessitating the opening of an urgent investigation and holding the concerned officials accountable, before the border turns into an open gateway to serious security risks.
