A 17-meter empty drug vessel, marked "Made in Colombia," was found floating off the Solomon Islands, the third such vessel in a year, raising concerns about Pacific islands being used for drug trafficking.
A 17-meter semi-submersible drug vessel, marked with "Made in Colombia, 2024" and filled with empty plastic bottles, was found floating off Malaita province in the Solomon Islands.
This is the third such vessel discovered in the region within a year, all empty and uncrewed, raising concerns over Pacific islands being used as transit points for cocaine and methamphetamine bound for Australia and New Zealand.
Authorities are investigating whether the subs drifted from South America or were used for mid-ocean drug transfers, as trafficking networks increasingly exploit the region’s remote, lightly patrolled waters.
