The Gang That Took Over Europe’s Biggest Port

Описание: What if one European port quietly became the epicenter of the global c*caine trade?

For years, the Port of Antwerp transformed into the main gateway for South American ccaine entering Europe. Behind the scenes, a highly organized criminal network known as the Makreel Gang built a sophisticated system that allowed tons of ccaine to pass through one of the busiest logistics hubs in the world.

They didn’t rely on violence to dominate the port — they relied on intelligence, corruption, and precision. Using insider information, encrypted communication networks like Sky ECC, and a method known as “The Switch,” they manipulated the logistics system itself. Containers were moved, seals were replaced, and shipments vanished — all in plain sight.

At its peak, Antwerp was breaking seizure records year after year:
• 110 tons of c*caine intercepted in 2022
• 116 tons seized in 2023
And authorities admit that this is only a fraction of what actually enters Europe.

But every empire has a weakness.

A single mistake — a forgotten USB stick discovered after a murder in Amsterdam — became the thread investigators pulled. What followed was one of the largest law enforcement operations in European history. When Sky ECC was cracked in 2021, billions of encrypted messages were suddenly exposed, revealing how the organization operated from Dubai to Belgium and the Netherlands.

Operation Sky changed everything.
