Exceptional 2025 Results in the Fight Against Narcotics – Tunisian National Guard

Tunis, 2025 – The General Directorate of the National Guard released an outstanding report on its anti‑drug operations for 2025. Spokesperson Brigadier General Houssem Eddine Jbabli told listeners of Mosaïque FM that the total value of seizures made by National Guard units runs into hundreds of billions of millimes.


Record Quantities of Drugs Intercepted

Operations carried out throughout the year led to the confiscation of exceptionally large volumes of narcotics:

Substance Approx. Quantity Seized
Cannabis ≈ 550 kg
Ecstasy tablets ≈ 1.5 million tablets
Cocaine ≈ 17.5 kg

These figures illustrate the scale of the dismantled trafficking networks and confirm an intensification of enforcement actions across the entire territory.


Massive Criminal Assets Confiscated

Beyond the illicit substances, security forces seized a considerable cache of assets linked to criminal groups, including:

  • 55 luxury cars
  • 25 high‑displacement motorcycles
  • 7 yachts

Financial confiscations were also significant:

  • ≈ €200,000 (euros)
  • ≈ $2,000 (US dollars)
  • ≈ 1 billion Tunisian dinars in various assets and securities

Direct revenues generated by the drug trade alone are estimated to exceed 1.2 million Tunisian dinars.


Intelligence‑Driven Strategy

According to General Jbabli, these results stem from deep intelligence work conducted by the National Guard’s specialized services. Interventions targeted both national and international networks through:

  • Highway checkpoints and road‑block operations
  • Planned ambushes
  • Coordinated actions at central and regional levels

Authorities stress that these achievements are not accidental; they are part of an integrated security strategy aimed at permanently dismantling trafficking pipelines and protecting Tunisian society from the scourge of drugs.
