Police Scotland officers have seized drugs with a street value of more than £3 million in a series of targeted operations across central Scotland.
The activity took place over a period of nine days in early December and led to 18 people being arrested.
In the series of operations, specialist officers targeted five organised crime groups, and seized significant amounts of drugs including cocaine, heroin, crack cocaine, cannabis and counterfeit prescription tablets.
Drugs with a street value in excess of £2.7 million were found at one location in Glasgow. Officers also found a highly sophisticated mobile drug production laboratory in a van in what's thought to be the first discovery of its kind in Scotland.
Equipment including a hydraulic press, moulds, and bulking agents were uncovered in the vehicle alongside a significant quantity of Class A substances.
