"Drones sent by Mexican cartels carrying drugs such as cocaine, meth, and heroin regularly cross the U.S. border.
They are being used to shift drugs by air and sea between Africa and Europe.
Spanish police seized a massive drone with a wingspan of over four metres capable of carrying up to 150 kilograms (330 pounds) of cargo in a special compartment in its nose, being used by a French smuggling gang to traffic drugs from Morocco to southern Spain. In 2022, police found three underwater drones built to smuggle up to 200 kilograms (440 pounds) of drugs across the Strait of Gibraltar between Morocco and Spain.
Drones are being used to smuggle drugs into high security prisons worldwide from Brazil and France to Australia and across the U.S.
In Canada, where 75 percent of prison contraband seizures are attributed to drone drops, there were 700 drone related incidents in two years, including one where an inmate fatally overdosed on fentanyl that had been delivered into his prison by drone.”"
