cash and several firearms. A total of 50 people were arrested, including two suspects who have since been handed over to the Polish authorities. <\/p>\n<p>The operation brought together Spain&#8217;s Guardia Civil, Poland&#8217;s Central Bureau of Investigation, Portugal&#8217;s National Republican Guard, Lithuania&#8217;s Criminal Police Bureau, OLAF and Europol. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Smoking is dangerous,&#8221;

data-key=\"articleBody\">European countries, together with the EU&#8217;s anti-fraud office (OLAF) and Europol, dismantled a multimillion-euro illicit cigarette supply chain, targeting groups suspected of manufacturing, distributing and trafficking counterfeit tobacco products worth an estimated \u20ac10 million, OLAF said in a press release.\u00a0Last month, officers carried out 23 searches at homes, commercial premises and industrial warehouses across the Spanish provinces of Alicante, Cuenca, Huelva, Murcia, Sevilla and Toledo.\u00a0Investigators also confiscated 18 vehicles, tobacco manufacturing equipment, encrypted electronic devices, \u20ac170,000 in cash and several firearms. A total of 50 people were arrested, including two suspects who have since been handed over to the Polish authorities.\u00a0The operation brought together Spain&#8217;s Guardia Civil, Poland&#8217;s Central Bureau of Investigation, Portugal&#8217;s National Republican Guard, Lithuania&#8217;s Criminal Police Bureau, OLAF and Europol.\u00a0&#8220;Smoking is dangerous,&#8221; OLAF chief Petr Klement said. &#8220;Smoking counterfeit cigarettes is even worse.&#8221;&#8221;On top of the harm to health, every illicit cigarette robs taxpayers and rewards organised crime,&#8221; he added.OLAF said that the investigations remain ongoing.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/health\/2026\/07\/09\/20-million-cigarettes-and-over-38-tonnes-of-tobacco-seized-in-eu-countries&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/83\/12\/56\/1200x675_cmsv2_266cd4dc-677c-5e79-a294-4589f36ddac8-9831256.jpg&#8221;] No Comment Santas fill Danish streets for annual congress Tech News News outlets seek sanctions against OpenAI in copyright battle Business Spain&#8217;s BBVA bank and former chairman to stand trial over spying Europe News Euroviews.
