Europol-backed probe dismantles cocaine network shipping from Ecuador to Europe

An international investigation supported by Europol and Eurojust has dismantled a criminal network suspected of importing cocaine into Europe from Ecuador and other Latin American countries. The operation targets a cross-border trafficking route into Europe and is described as having broken up the network under investigation.

Investigators link the network to large quantities of seized cocaine, including a recent seizure of over 750 kilos in Antwerp, Belgium. The source does not name arrests, charges, or the number of countries involved beyond Ecuador and other Latin American states.

The case is framed as an international law enforcement action against cocaine importation into Europe. The only concrete seizure cited is the Antwerp haul of more than 750 kilos, which investigators say is associated with the dismantled network.
