The security and protection battalion at the Al-Wadiah land crossing in Hadramout foiled an attempt to smuggle 39,206 Captagon pills and 900 grams of shabu into Saudi Arabia. Colonel Bassam Al-Najjar, the battalion commander, said troops at a weapons checkpoint stopped a car coming from areas controlled by the Houthi militias. The drugs were hidden inside the vehicle, and the seizure followed suspicion.
