Andalusia Leads in Drug Seizures
Statistics from 2025 show that the Andalusian region in Spain remains a major hub for drug trafficking activities, accounting for approximately 77% of the total cannabis seizures nationwide. The amount of cannabis seized in the region exceeded 198 tons, an increase from 143 tons in 2024. Additionally, 25 tons of cocaine were confiscated, representing about 33% of the total quantities seized across Spain, despite a decline in volumes compared to the previous year. This reflects the ongoing activities of trafficking networks and an escalation in production and concealment operations. The data also indicates a 22% decrease in arrests compared to the past year, alongside a rising diversity of illicit substances entering the illegal market—such as ketamine, MDMA, and methamphetamine—posing new challenges for security authorities to counter evolving smuggling methods and expand their networks.
