Liberian authorities have said that they have seized some $100 million worth of cocaine, with help from the United States' international narcotics agency. The operation led "to the seizure of $100 million worth of pure cocaine," he said. The drug agency could not confirm reports shared on social media that the drug had been stored in frozen fish containers. Drug enforcement agency chief Marcus Zehyoue said "a full-scale investigation" was underway along with a search for accomplices who escaped capture. "The success of this operation is the direct result of excellent communication between law enforcement agencies around the world, including Brazil, the United States, and Liberia, among others," it added.
