Lebanon's security forces have seized an estimated 10 million captagon pills that were to be smuggled to Senegal and then on to Saudi Arabia, Interior Minister Bassam Mawlawi said in a tweet on Friday.
The drugs were found in a shipment of rubber carbon during an operation in which four people were arrested in the Al-Qubbah area, in northern Lebanon, Mawlawi said.
Captagon - a mix of amphetamines also known as the "poor man's cocaine" - is one of the more popular recreational drugs among the youth in the Middle East.
