In Basra, the Criminal Court sentenced a foreign national to death after police found five kilograms of methamphetamine and tramadol intended for sale. The Supreme Judicial Council said the ruling was issued under Iraq's 2017 Anti-Narcotics Law. In Baghdad, two Iraqis received life sentences after being caught with over three kilograms of hashish. The verdict was based on the same law, alongside penal code provisions for criminal involvement. In the Kurdistan Region, Erbil authorities destroyed more than 14 kilograms of confiscated narcotics—marijuana, hashish, heroin, opium, syringes, and over 300 tablets—following final court rulings. In Maysan province, security forces arrested another foreign national attempting to smuggle 10 kilograms of drugs into the country. The arrest followed an intelligence-led operation, according to a statement by local authorities. Drug trafficking and abuse have become growing concerns in Iraq.
