The special services reported that 17 people, including eight women, were arrested in the operation.[1] The operation took place at the Boulbinet fishing port in Conakry.[1] The operation at Bourbinet was conducted over two days.[2] The stock was discovered in inhabited houses in Boulbinet, where people in their forties, fifties and younger lived.[1] Principal police commissioner Foromo Soropogui presented the seizure on Monday 30 June 2025.[1]

Soropogui said officers seized 773 kg of chanvre indien, the French term used in Guinea for cannabis.[1] Soropogui described Kush as a substance separate from the 773 kg of chanvre indien.[1] Guinéenews likewise reported 773 kg of chanvre indien alongside a separate quantity of the drug Kush.[2] Guinéenews also reported 17 arrests, including eight women.[2]

Soropogui said the operation had active support from enforcement units and ended without incident.[1] Soropogui said 80 percent of the drugs came from Sierra Leone and that several arrested people were Sierra Leonean.[1] The special services conducted the two-day network operation through Operation Épervier.[1] Authorities placed the operation within a national Zéro Kush strategy intended to eliminate Kush from Guinea by 2026.[1] After the seizure, authorities announced stronger border surveillance and changes to their intervention tactics.[2]
