April 14, 2025

Drug seizures are increasing in Cyprus, with 228 kilograms of cannabis seized in just the first three months of this year. This rise is linked to the growing demand for cannabis, as well as other drugs like cocaine and synthetic substances. Generally, arrests for drug trafficking have become a daily occurrence, involving even young individuals. Larnaca Airport remains the primary entry point for drug imports into the country.
