Three men are behind bars after authorities seized $675 million worth of methylamphetamine, also known as "ice", destined for Australian streets.
The illicit drugs were found in a number of sea cargo containers, which arrived into Port Botany in Sydney last month.
Australian Border Force (ABF) officers examined the shipment, acting on intelligence.
