Ireland’s biggest drug trafficking gang, which was hit in an international operation last month targeting encrypted mobile phones, has been dealt another blow after a 30kg cocaine haul in Wexford.

The seizure was the result of a joint operation by the Garda National Drugs & Organised Crime Bureau and Revenue, assisted by the Wexford Divisional Drug Unit.
