Alongside Granada and Cádiz, Almería is identified as a fundamental piece of the logistics corridor connecting the south of the peninsula with France and other European markets. This mention underscores the sophistication of criminal organizations, which have improved their operational and logistical capabilities in recent years.

The inclusion of the province in this report reflects a threat that extends beyond local security, impacting stability and transport infrastructure. Authorities warn that current organized crime uses more complex means, including military-grade equipment and advanced monitoring systems.
