Moscow may send additional drug control officers to Afghanistan, the head of Russia's drug watchdog said on Friday.
"We have made a request to send more Federal Drug Control Service staff, who would investigate the situation on the ground," Viktor Ivanov said.
Ivanov said that on October 28, Russian and U.S. drug control services carried out a joint anti-narcotics operation in Afghanistan, destroying 4 drug labs and 900 kilograms of heroin.
