Seven men have been arrested as part of a major drugs seizure.
Cannabis plants (pictured above), worth an estimated €100,000, were found during intelligence led searches at 20 properties in the greater Dublin area this morning.
A small quantity of cocaine was also seized as part of Operation Nitrogen, set up to combat the sale and supply of drugs.
Gardai say the plants were being grown in 11 of the premises, with the cannabis manufacturing taking place in nine of those locations.
The men in custody are being held under Section 2 of the Drug Trafficking Act at Garda Stations in Dublin and Wicklow.
