A large deployment of the National Police in Arrecife surprised residents of several streets in the city center on Tuesday morning. As La Voz has been able to ascertain and National Police sources have confirmed, the operation took place on Portugal Street, in the heart of Lanzarote's capital, this very November 25th.

Witnesses have revealed that there was a large deployment of National Police vehicles in the area, with some officers even **dressed in balaclavas**

The National Police has informed this outlet that the operation is under judicial secrecy, so it cannot provide further details until the court restrictions are lifted.

However, *La Voz* has learned that it is an investigation related to **crimes against public health** and that it would be a police operation against drug trafficking.
