Illegal Drug Interdiction
Illegal drug interdiction involves law enforcement efforts to detect, prevent, and stop the illegal flow of drugs across borders, transportation routes, and distribution networks. The goal is to identify and intercept drug shipments before they reach consumers, reducing availability and harm. This includes monitoring transportation methods like trucks, ships, and aircraft, as well as intelligence sharing and surveillance. Interdiction aims to disrupt illegal drug trade operations, protect public health, and uphold legal standards. It requires coordination among various agencies and effective use of technology, intelligence, and resources to combat drug trafficking organizations.
