Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables
If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number. Linking to a specific paragraph in the body of a cable is also possible by copying the appropriate link (to be found at theparagraph symbol).

SUMMARY 
--------- 
1. (SBU) The key developments in April 2006: 
 
** As of April 27, CORAH eradicated 3,027 hectares and 
eliminated 8,262 square meters of seedbeds. 
 
** Three improvised explosive devices (IED) exploded over two 
days in coca fields.  No eradicators were seriously injured. 
 
** Police destroyed 38.5 hectares of opium poppy.  DIRANDRO 
also destroyed 110 cocaine-base laboratories and a major 
cocaine HCl laboratory in the VRAE. 
 
** DIRAVPOL has offered NAS a second, heavy-lift MI-17 
helicopter for eradication and interdiction operations. 
 
** The seizure 65 kg of cocaine HCl in the Bahamas points to 
Peru. 
 
** New ion-scanner led to the arrests of 40 people and 100 kg 
of cocaine HCl at Lima airport.  Also, the newly trained 
canines at Lima airport found 52 kg of cocaine HCl. 
 
** NAS attendance at drug prevention conference in 
Charleston, SC yields new strategies for encouraging more 
local participation in community coalitions.  End Summary. 
 
--------------------------------------------- ---------- 
ERADICATION CONTINUES DESPITE ELECTIONS AND EXPLOSIVES 
--------------------------------------------- ---------- 
2. (U) CORAH has eradicated 3,027 hectares and eliminated 
8,262 square meters of seedbeds in the first four months of 
2006.  CORAH will remain in San Martin until the end of May, 
and then move to the Aguaytia area where there are an 
estimated 3,500 hectares of coca. 
 
3. (SBU) Three improvised explosive devices (IED) detonated 
near eradicators pulling up coca plants in the Santa Rosa de 
Mishollo, the home of cocalero leader and newly-elected 
congresswoman Nancy Obregon.  No one was seriously injured. 
The explosions occurred on April 26 when an eradicator tossed 
his "cococho" (extraction tool) a few meters ahead of him 
because he was pulling coca by hand.  Earlier that morning, a 
bomb dog checked the field that morning but did not find the 
IED.  The next day, three more eradicators were injured when 
two more IEDs exploded in the same field about five minutes 
apart.  Both IEDs were triggered when the coca plants they 
were attached to were uprooted. Two eradicators came away 
with bruises.  The other had dirt sprayed in his face. NAS is 
assisting DIRANDRO to develop field sweeping tactics to 
detect IEDs. 
 
4. (U) The 2005 UN Coca Survey results will be officially 
presented in June.  NAS and USAID are now discussing with 
DEVIDA an eradication campaign in nature preserves and ways 
to discourage replanting. 
 
------------------------- 
UPDATE ON OPIUM STRATEGY 
------------------------- 
5. (U) Efforts to stamp out a nascent opium poppy industry in 
Peru continue to focus on intelligence gathering to establish 
the whereabouts and parameters of cultivation.  The police 
have eradicated 38.5 hectares of opium poppy this year.  The 
1-800 hotline initiated in February has begun to yield 
results with several seizures of opium poppy fields in April 
from a hotline tip.  Mission counter-narcotics resources will 
continue to be directed primarily at illegal coca and cocaine 
trafficking while continuing to keep a close watch on the 
potential growth of opium poppy in Peru (Reftel). 
 
--------------------------------------------- 
POLICE DESTROY 110 COCAINE-BASE LABS IN VRAE 
--------------------------------------------- 
6. (U) During April, DIRANDRO Special Operations (GOES) 
troops destroyed 110 cocaine-base laboratories and tons of 
precursor chemicals and coca leaf in the Apurimac/Ene Valley 
(VRAE).  On April 17, GOES destroyed a major cocaine HCl 
laboratory and seized 220 kg of cocaine base, 560 gallons of 
acetone, 80 gallons of ammonia, four weapons, and 
communications equipment.  On April 27, they seized 153 kg of 
cocaine base from a house in the area.  Interdiction and 
eradication operations continue in the Upper Huallaga.  A 
second GOES team fielded more than 200 police in support of 
eradication operations.  This team has destroyed 70 
cocaine-base laboratories this year. 
 
--------------------------------------------- ----- 
NEW PILOTS TRAINED AND PNP PROVIDING SECOND MI-17 
--------------------------------------------- ----- 
7. (SBU) Nine new PNP pilots finished training on the UH-2s 
this month.  In anticipation of increasing interdiction 
operations in the VRAE, NAS is intensifying special missions 
training such as fast roping, rappelling, sling loads, and 
use of night-vision goggles.  Presently, NAS has 19 UH-2s in 
country. NAS signed an agreement with DIRAVPOL to make 
available a second, heavy-lift MI-17 helicopter to support 
eradication and interdiction operations.  The remanufactured 
MI-17 has been promised for the end of June.  The Peruvian 
Air Force (FAP) C-26 Joint CN Air Squadron continues to 
provide valuable airlift support for counternarcotics 
operations east of the Andes. 
 
--------------------------------------------- --------- 
PORT SEIZURES INCREASE AND SMUGGLING SCHEME UNCOVERED 
--------------------------------------------- --------- 
8. (SBU) On April 14, DEA and the Bahamian Police found a 
maritime container with 65 kg of cocaine HCl.  This seizure 
was tied to a smuggling ring operating in the Port of Callao. 
 A separate investigation has been initiated to look into 
three incidents of tampering with shipping container seals. 
During April the Manifest Review Unit (MRU) sent 3 alerts of 
suspect cargo to DEA, 8 alerts to the port of Paita, 18 to 
the port of Callao, and 4 to U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection in the U.S.  The suspect cargo will be searched 
for cocaine at the receiving port. 
 
9. (SBU) Peruvian Customs and the Police arrested 40 people 
attempting to smuggle 100 kg of cocaine HCl last month 
through the Jorge Chavez International Airport in Lima.  Law 
enforcement officers detected the drugs with a NAS-provided 
ion-scanner.  The newly-trained Peruvian Customs canines at 
Lima airport have found 52 kg of cocaine HCl in seven 
seizures.  Inspectors at SERPOST (Peruvian postal system) 
seized 50 kg of cocaine HCl in 15 cases this month. 
 
10. (SBU) A mobile x-ray van arrived in Lima and will be made 
available to Peruvian Customs and DIRANDRO starting in May. 
Recently, the GOP officials impounded 25,000 cans of 
asparagus suspected of containing at least 1,500 kg of 
cocaine HCl.  NAS Advisors will use the 25,000 cans to train 
Peruvian officials to use the x-ray van. 
 
--------------------------------------------- -- 
CREATING NEW WAYS TO HELP ANTI-DRUG COALITIONS 
--------------------------------------------- -- 
11. (U) The ongoing evaluation of the community anti-drug 
coalitions (CAC) revealed that some CAC teams (NGOs) are 
still blending the CAC methodology with past program models 
that focus on individuals.  Coalitions focus on communities. 
NAS is preparing additional material to guide the CAC teams, 
based on the information presented at the CADCA-sponsored 
two-day training in Charleston, SC, April 20-21.  The 
materials will emphasize that CAC teams encourage community 
members to participate in every aspect of prevention 
activities.
