Australia's Largest Cocaine Bust

Australia just pulled off its biggest-ever cocaine bust: 2.7 tonnes worth over $800 million, hidden in underground bunkers under shipping containers in western Sydney. The operation, called “Operation Minjiang,” began with 40 kilos found near a Queensland boat ramp — just the start of a massive shipment orchestrated by a sophisticated crime syndicate. Two young men, 21 and 25, were arrested trying to offload the drugs and face life sentences. Authorities have already nabbed six more suspects across Queensland and NSW, with a suspected mother vessel detained in the Solomon Islands. International partners are helping track down the full network — a chilling reminder of how deep and dangerous these criminal operations have become.
