Venezuelan authorities in the central state of Guarico have seized more than two dozen airplanes, suspected of being used by drug traffickers.
委內瑞拉當局在瓜裡科州中部，已抓住超過兩打飛機，被懷疑為販毒者使用。
A local security official from Guarico said the planes were discovered inside a shelter on the outskirts of El Sombrero, which is located about 143 miles (230 kilometers) from Caracas.
一位來自瓜裡科的安全官員說，飛機是在埃爾松布雷羅的郊區有蓋物內發現，它位於加拉加斯約 143英里（230公里）。
Federal police and National Guard troops have taken control of the hangar and impounded the planes while investigations proceed, Hedy Ramirez told the state-run ABN news agency on Sunday.
The 28 planes are mostly small aircraft, typical of those used by drug traffickers.
28架飛機大多是小型飛機，典型是販毒者使用那些。
Venezuela's 2,000-kilometer-long border with Colombia has made the country a major launching pad for traffickers smuggling Colombian cocaine to the United States and Europe.
委內瑞拉與哥倫比亞的二千公里長邊界，已使這個國家成為主要的跳板，走私販運哥倫比亞的可卡因到美國和歐洲。
Early in January, Caracas reported that 60 metric tonnes of drugs had been confiscated in 2009, which means an 11 percent bigger haul than that of the previous year, with cocaine and marijuana accounting for nearly all of the illicit drugs seized.
The South American nation stopped cooperation with the US Drug Enforcement Agency in 2005 amid deteriorating bilateral relations.
Nevertheless, according to Caracas, anti-narcotics efforts have improved since ending cooperation with the United States and the rise in drug confiscation and destruction since that time "shows the US government had a policy of obstruction, to prevent the reduction of this social ill."
