Spanish Authorities Intercept Drug-Filled Freighter in Atlantic Operation

Oct 27, 2025 12:12

On October 22, 2025, at 9:30 a.m., Spain's elite GEO (Grupo Especial de Operaciones) successfully apprehended the freighter 'Littler Girls' in a high-stakes maritime operation off the southwestern coast of the Canary Islands. The vessel was carrying an astounding 4,000 kilograms of cocaine, located approximately 1,100 kilometers away from the archipelago, far beyond Spain's territorial waters. This sophisticated operation was executed with the invaluable assistance of the Spanish Navy, marking a significant triumph in combating drug trafficking. All nine crew members aboard were arrested during the raid. Notably, the freighter had undergone suspicious structural modifications that appeared tailor-made for concealing illicit substances. The ship had set sail from the Port of Cristóbal on September 30, bound for Vigo. Actively seeking intelligence on drug movements, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) had alerted Spanish officials on October 8 about a potential large-scale cocaine shipment destined for Spain. This crucial information enabled Spanish authorities to track down the 'Littler Girls' and orchestrate the operation seamlessly. The case has now been escalated to the Special Prosecutor's Office for Drug Crimes (Fiscalía Especial Antidroga de la Audiencia Nacional), which has taken over coordination of the investigation. Following the operation, the Spanish police successfully secured the entire haul and relocated the freighter to Gran Canaria for thorough examination. The vessel has since berthed at the Port of Arinaga in Agüimes, where investigators have begun their detailed analysis. Initial reports suggested the cocaine load weighed 6,500 kilograms, but subsequent on-site verification determined the total to be around 4,000 kilograms.
