The operation, which involved over 2,500 police officers, took place in various parts of the country and resulted in the seizure of large quantities of drugs, cash, and weapons.
The police had been investigating the drug trafficking network for several months before launching the operation, which targeted the leaders of the organization and their associates. The individuals arrested in the bust are suspected of having links to organized crime and drug trafficking activities in France and other European countries.

Authorities have stated that the bust will significantly disrupt the drug trafficking network and prevent large quantities of drugs from reaching the streets. The operation also sends a strong message to other organized crime groups operating in France that the police are determined to take action against them.
