Overview

Law enforcement agencies in Spain and Germany have conducted various operations targeting organized crime, drug trafficking, and illegal weapons possession.

In a coordinated effort involving Europol, authorities arrested a fugitive in Valencia, Spain, linked to a 2025 attempted murder in Germany, alongside two other suspects in Germany. Spanish operations also dismantled several criminal networks, including a bank fraud scheme in Gandia, a violent robbery gang in Alcalá de Guadaíra, and drug networks in Torrevieja and Castelló de Rugat.
