BEIRUT (AFP) – Lebanese security forces seized over five million captagon pills hidden inside construction material, the interior minister said Tuesday, in the latest bust of the amphetamine-type stimulant.

Officers seized “a large quantity of captagon” during a raid on a warehouse in the city of Ghazieh, Bassam Mawlawi said in a statement.

Lebanese authorities have ramped up efforts to counter captagon production and trafficking.
