👉 Smuggling is the act of transporting contraband goods, such as weapons or other illegal items, across the borders of a country. This can take many forms, including through maritime routes like sea lanes and land ports, or across international borders through illicit transportation routes like the black market or the illegal economy. Smugglers often engage in organized crime operations, using sophisticated technology to track and control shipments. The objective is often to evade detection by authorities and gain a significant profit from their activities.
