At least 14 people have been arrested and over 70kg of illicit drugs seized in a police raid on drugs traffickers' gang in the Balkan region, Xinhua reported.

The arrests were made Wednesday after a month-long international investigation, during which a total of 36 suspects were identified in Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Austria, Germany, Italy, among others, media reported Thursday.

The latest anti-drug campaign followed a crackdown in October 2013 on an international criminal gang smuggling drugs to Slovenia and other European countries.
