Taiz – Saba:

Al-Rahida Customs Center in Taiz province, in cooperation with Anti-Smuggling Unit, seized on Sunday a quantity of smuggled medicines.

Center's Director Mohammed al-Jaberi told Saba News Agency that the smuggled drugs were intercepted in the Samea district while being transported on the backs of porters.

Al-Jaberi praised the efforts of the Anti-Smuggling Unit and its cooperation with customs authorities to combat all forms of smuggling.

He highlighted the challenges posed by the region’s rugged terrain, which smugglers exploit using porters, camels, and donkeys to move contraband.

Al-Jaberi stressed that customs authorities are working around the clock in full coordination with relevant agencies to protect public health and safety from the dangers of smuggled and banned goods.
