"During the operation, internet monitoring revealed 751 websites engaged in illegal activity, including offering controlled or prescription-only drugs, 72 of which have now been taken down. More than 16,000 packages were inspected by regulators and customs, 995 of which were seized and nearly 167,000 illicit and counterfeit pills, including antibiotics, steroids and slimming pills, were confiscated."
illicit and counterfet pills. I checked all the sites I know of and they still seem to be in operation. 995 packages seized seems like a lot but not considering how many countries were involved. The LL's will be coming to those that had packages seized so I guess we will know then.

I'm confused, over a 4 day period, shouldn't these countries intercept a similar number of packages regularly? Plus, we're talking not the smallest countries, the UK, USA, and Canada.
