Perth authorities have shut almost 50 shops in a major crackdown on illegal vape and tobacco sales, seizing over $11 million worth of products including millions of cigarettes and vapes. The operation, involving health departments and police, highlights the scale of the black market, estimated at $7 billion annually.
