Spanish police released footage of a weapons haul from an undisclosed location, Tuesday, showing more than 10,000 machine guns, rifles, pistols, shells, grenades and other ammunition seized in an operation executed last January.
According to Spanish authorities, the weapons seized included around 10,000 rifles, 400 howitzers and grenades, in addition to sums of cash amounting to €80,000 ($70,000).
The raids targeted organised arms-trafficking groups in Girona, Biscay and Cantabria. According to the Spanish police, the arms were destined to be sold on the black market to terrorist groups as well as Europe-based gangs.
