Azerbaijan continues to intensify its efforts against the illegal drug trade, with the Ministry of Internal Affairs regularly conducting operations in border regions and settlements to prevent the distribution of controlled substances and protect public health. The Bilasuvar district, located in the southern part of Azerbaijan, remains a key area for law enforcement monitoring due to its proximity to transit routes.
