No arrests were made and investigations are ongoing.

The Garda Press Office said these type of operations “use advanced analytical and intelligence methods to disrupt criminals and dismantle their networks”.

A spokesperson added that drug seizures “play a critical role in targeting the livelihood of criminals and reducing their ability to carry out illegal activities”.
