A joint Australia-Malaysia operation to target people smuggling in Malaysian territorial waters has wrapped up this week.
The 15th iteration of Operation Redback began on June 22 and concluded in Langkawi on Wednesday.
Led by the Malaysia Coast Guard (MCG) with participation from the Australian Border Force (ABF), the Redback aimed to counter people smuggling in the region through strategic communication and a patrol in the northern waters of the Malacca Strait.
