Extensive Spanish investigations into cocaine smuggling networks reveal that Morocco is one of the main transit hubs in the Western Mediterranean region, thanks to its geographic proximity to the Strait of Gibraltar. The major security operation "Gimita" carried out in 2020 resulted in the seizure of 1.6 tons of cocaine and 16 million euros in cash, and the arrest of 29 individuals, as part of efforts to dismantle organized crime networks involved in drug trafficking and money laundering. The investigations are also strengthening the hypothesis of redirecting drug proceeds through legal channels and financial intermediary networks, while smuggling routes continue to intertwine between the Moroccan coasts and Spain, with a focus on disrupting sources of illegal funding to ensure the ongoing operation of criminal networks in the region.
