The French Navy struck another blow against illegal drugs when the frigate Ventôse seized 2.4 tonnes of cocaine from a Venezuelan fishing vessel.
The Force Armées aux Antilles disclosed that the May 15 seizure, in partnership with other law enforcement agencies, occurred 820 miles northeast of Martinique.
Ventôse crew members boarded the Venezuelan fishing vessel and confiscated 81 bales of cocaine.
The French authorities handed the illegal cargo and the Venezuelan vessel’s crew members over to Venezuelan authorities at sea.
It was the seventh French Navy drug seizure for 2024, bringing the total of confiscated narcotics to more than twelve tonnes.

Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in his ways..
You will eat the fruit of your labor ; blessings and prosperity will be yours..
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house ; your sons will be like olive shoots around your table..
Thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD..
Go,eat your food with gladness,and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for it is now that God favors what you do..
Always be clothed in white,and anoint your head with oil..
Enjoy life with your (wife),whom you love at your youth,all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun_ all your meaningless days..
For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labour under the d’un..
