Five people have been arrested as police carried out 18 raids across Birmingham as part of a campaign to stop the supply of class A drugs.
More than 100 officers were involved in raids on properties in the Alum Road, Washwood Heath and Ward End areas of the city.
They were carried out as part of West Midlands Police’s Operation Damaging.
The force said it was responding to concerns from the public about drugs in their areas.
The raids were carried out throughout Tuesday and Wednesday.
Police said they had recovered “a quantity of property”.
Acting Det Insp Nick Walton said: “The message is simple: If you choose a gang lifestyle and involve yourself in the unlawful supply of drugs, you will be targeted.
“We thank our communities for the continuing assistance they are giving us in the fight against crime and urge them to go on helping us to make their neighbourhoods safer.”
