Police in Herwijnen discovered over 1,000 kilograms of illegal fireworks while searching a local business and garage. This raid led to a coordinated operation in Hüven, Germany, where authorities found over 35,000 kilograms of illegal fireworks intended for the Dutch market. The Dutch and German police are collaborating closely to combat illegal fireworks, allowing operations without cross-border legal requests. Two men have been arrested, and the police warn of significant dangers posed by stored illegal fireworks near residential areas.
