Turkish customs seized 1.5 tons (3,000 pounds) of hashish in an anti-drug operation at the Greek border, the country's Trade Ministry said on Friday.
In a written statement, the ministry said that guards found the hashish in a tractor-trailer transporting soybeans at the Ipsala border gate in the northwestern Edirne province.
Acting on a tip, the squads discovered the drugs in 152 sacks -- 10 kilograms (22 pounds) each -- hidden among the sacks filled with soybeans, the ministry said.
It has been the largest ever drug bust that Turkey has made in a single operation at the border gates, it added.
The Albanian-origin driver of the tractor-trailer and two others thought to be related to the incident were arrested.
