Version 0.35 (2024-05-28 08:56:19.803000)
updates: The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has reported that the synthetic drug market in East and Southeast Asia is expanding at concerning levels. Methamphetamine production and trafficking in the region have significantly increased, with a record 190 tons of the drug seized last year. The surge in production has been led by the Golden Triangle of mainland Southeast Asia, particularly in Myanmar's Shan State. The UNODC also highlighted the increasing sophistication of organized crime groups, who are using non-controlled chemicals and maritime routes to traffic drugs. The political economy of the region's drug production is unlikely to shift soon due to the ongoing conflict in Myanmar.

Version 0.34 (2024-05-15 04:06:10.560000)
updates: The number of fentanyl pill seizures in the US has quadrupled between 2017 and 2023, with over 115 million pills seized in 2023. Fentanyl in pill form is becoming increasingly common, accounting for roughly half of illicit fentanyl seizures last year. China is cited as the primary source of fentanyl smuggled into the US. Fentanyl-containing pills are often purchased online, with buyers unaware that the drug has been cut with the highly potent opioid. Florida had the largest number of fentanyl seizures in 2023, followed by Arizona and California. The West accounted for the majority of pills seized in the US, while the Northeast reported the fewest. Fentanyl test strips and naloxone are cited as effective tools for combating the harm caused by fentanyl.
