MEHR: Over the past year, more than 2,700 kilograms of illicit drugs were confiscated in Iran's southern province of Bushehr, a provincial police source said.

General Heidar Sousani told Mehr News Agency that 3,193 criminals were also arrested in this regard over the past year.

59 drug traffickers and 758 drug dealers have been detained, he said.

Iran is at the forefront of the fight against drug trafficking and thousands of Iranian forces have been so far martyred to protect the world from the danger of drugs.

Despite high economic and human costs, the Islamic Republic has been actively fighting drug trafficking over the past decades.
