The Spanish Tax Agency is strengthening its fight against drug trafficking and smuggling in the Canary Islands with a new patrol boat

Spain's Agencia Tributaria has reinforced its maritime surveillance and anti-smuggling operations through the incorporation of new high-seas patrol vessels. The expansion includes the deployment of a new multipurpose patrol boat in the Canary Islands specifically aimed at intensifying the fight against drug trafficking and contraband in the region.

Simultaneously, the agency has integrated another high-seas patrol vessel, designated the 'Torgo I', which will be stationed at its home port in Brens, located in Cee, A Coruña. This addition further bolsters the operational capacity of the Customs Surveillance Service in conducting maritime patrols and intercepting illegal trafficking.
