ER Editor: Much has to be revealed to the public about underground tunnel systems and what they have been actually used for. This report, revealing tunnels between Morocco and Spain, under the sea, limits us to the drug angle. Reports on the topic involve the number 17,  it should be noted. From CBS —

From over a year ago, the topic of underground tunnels is raised from a different angle —

Ceuta: a second secret tunnel connected to Morocco was used for drug trafficking

We cannot copy sections of this article above, but this ‘discovery’ (no doubt given to Spanish police by the white hat military for official disclosure) seems to have been part of a larger-scale operation going on in several regions of mainland Spain (from Andalusia in the south-west to Galicia in the north-west), and is the second tunnel to have been officially discovered around Ceuta.

The tunnel, found beneath an industrial warehouse, had been carefully concealed and equipped with pumping and soundproofing systems to avoid detection, police said.

Authorities described the three-level structure as “maze-like” and highly advanced. The lowest level, which led directly towards Morocco, resembled “a mine-style maze” and was fitted with rail tracks and trolleys designed to move heavy loads.

Above it, a middle level was used to prepare and store bales of hashish, which were then lifted using cranes and pulley systems.

The tunnel reached a depth of 19 metres and measured around 1.2 metres in height and 80 centimetres in width, making it accessible but tightly confined. Investigators have been unable to determine its full length because parts of the structure are flooded, police official Antonio Martinez said.

Authorities believe the tunnel was built by a powerful criminal organisation with significant technical expertise (ER: hmm), working with other networks to move the drugs onwards by speedboat and fishing vessel.

The investigation, launched in February 2025, has led to the seizure of more than 17 tonnes of hashish and €1.4 million in cash in operations across Ceuta and mainland Spain. Police have arrested 27 people, including two suspected leaders of the network.

One of the suspects, based in Morocco and detained on March 26, is also believed to be linked to a similar tunnel dismantled in Ceuta last year.
