Spanish police dismantle network for smuggling Syrian immigrants
[NPASyria] Spanish police announced on Sunday that they dismantled a network for smuggling Syrian immigrants colonists from Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
to Spain, Germany, Norway.

The police arrested 19 suspects of a criminal network involved in illegal smuggling, of which six have entered pretrial detention.

The police stated that they "disrupted the logistical structure of a criminal organization specialized in smuggling Syrian migrants colonists" in Spain in cooperation with Europol and the German Federal Police.

Investigators noted that the dismantled network was part of an extensive criminal network throughout different countries in Asia, Africa and Europe. They received €20,000 per person to be smuggled by air, sea and land.

Over 12 million Syrians remained forcibly displaced, including almost 6.8 million within the country and 5.4 million living as refugees in neighboring countries, according to the UN.
