Lebanon blocks smuggling of 5000 Captagon pills into Saudi Arabia
Lebanese security forces managed to foil an attempt to smuggle around 5,000 Captagon pills into Saudi Arabia via a shipping company. The drugs were discovered inside a flower vase box during a thorough surveillance and monitoring operation. These measures are part of Lebanon’s intensified efforts to combat drug smuggling, especially following Saudi Arabia's 2021 decision to suspend the entry of Lebanese products due to repeated smuggling attempts. Exports resumed in June 2026 after Lebanon implemented strict measures, including border control and dismantling trafficking networks. The Lebanese government emphasizes its commitment to enhancing oversight and coordinating with Arab countries to prevent smuggling.
