Overview

• The national plan begins coordinated terrestrial, aquatic and aerial operations with criminal intelligence and technology to harden controls along the 3,442‑km corridor.
• About 200 personnel, five boats and elite units Albatros and Alacranes are deployed near Isla del Cerrito to patrol complex island zones at the Paraguay–Paraná confluence.
• Authorities say the initiative builds on recent results, citing the arrest in Entre Ríos of Pablo Laurta, accused in a double femicide, after an attempted escape via Gualeguaychú.
• Participating agencies include Prefectura Naval, Gendarmería, Policía Federal, PSA, Customs and Migration, coordinated through the National River Security desk with Chaco and Corrientes police.
• Plan Paraná extends a series of targeted federal interventions such as Plan Bandera, Plan Güemes and Plan Guaçurarí, with added tools like drones, sensors, radars and satellite monitoring; officials also flagged a future fiber‑optic camera network as a project contingent on resources.
