Ecuadorian Armed Forces apprehended two individuals, including a woman, during targeted offensive operations against local drug distribution in the Los Ríos province.

In a strategic push to enhance risk mitigation and maintain corporate security across regional commerce vectors, the Armed Forces of Ecuador carried out offensive recognition maneuvers targeting micro-trafficking networks. The tactical deployments focused on key corridors within the Ventanas and Urdaneta cantons, located in the province of Los Ríos, Ecuador, resulting in the successful apprehension of two suspects involved in illicit substance distribution.

Military personnel executed synchronized patrols to disrupt local illicit markets that threaten regional sustainable development and community welfare. During the intervention, security forces detained two citizens and confiscated key items used in micro-distribution channels. The official inventory of seized assets includes:

  • - 02 citizens apprehended.
  • - 24 doses of suspected marijuana.
  • - 15 doses of suspected cocaine.
  • - USD 110.25 in cash.
