The United States Government has announced a series of actions against those involved in illicit fentanyl trafficking.

Secretary of State, Antony Blinken who made this known in a statement on Friday, also announced through the State Department, rewards offers for information leading to the arrest or conviction of 27 individuals.



He said, “Additionally, the Department of Justice announced significant indictments against fentanyl traffickers associated with the Sinaloa Cartel.

“The Department of the Treasury sanctioned five individuals and two entities involved in the trafficking of fentanyl precursor chemicals from the PRC”, Blinken added.



Secretary of State noted that today’s actions demonstrate the resolve of the United States to promote accountability for criminals who perpetuate illicit fentanyl activity.

“We are poised to continue the use of this important tool, not only to support our partners, but also to help provide justice and accountability to those impacted by the careless distribution of a deadly substance”, Antony Blinken said.



Illicit synthetic drugs pose a grave threat to the health and security of the people of the United States and other countries. Foreign-sourced illicit synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl, remain the deadliest drug threat to the American people. 

According to report, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention CDC estimated that more than 100,000 Americans died of a drug overdose in 2021, with two-thirds of fatal overdoses involving synthetic opioids.
