Police in Spain find barrels of drugs lashed to hulls of boats

Authorities in Spain have arrested 32 people in connection with a drug smuggling operation through the Port of Tarifa in the south of the country.

Police discovered bales of hash in barrels lashed to the hulls of recreational boats, as seen in this video from the Civil Guard. Two tons of hash were recovered.

Authorities said that the arrests were the result of an operation that began in January, when police identified a number of people who appeared to be living beyond their means in Tarifa.
