The Department of Justice reported that a massive dark web drugs and weapons conspiracy has been broken up with the arrest of 270 people on four continents.

The DOJ said the organization used access to “dark web” links to traffic drugs and weapons. Among those arrested, it said, were buyers, vendors, and administrators, or background logistics support people.

Two metric tons of drugs were seized in raids connected to the enforcement action. Agents also reported seizing 144 kilograms of fentanyl or fentanyl-laced narcotics.
