16. Ecuador’s biggest cocaine bust of 2016

Ecuador seized nearly 7.5 metric tons of cocaine in November 2016 in a bid to fight back against the illegal drug trade, which has made a significant presence within the country. 2.5 more tons were then seized a few days later, for a combined total of 81 metric tons confiscated in the year.
