The operation involved more than 1,000 officers from seven police forces and focused on roads and motorways in and around London.
During the three-day operation - which ran from last Tuesday to Thursday - people suspected of knife, weapon, drugs, burglary and robbery offences were arrested.Superintendent Gulczynski said tackling violent crime continues to be the Met's "priority"
Superintendent Gulczynski said it "was a joint effort between seven police forces, sharing proactive intelligence and enhancing existing relationship to target those involved in drug, gang and weapon-based violence". "While removing drugs and weapons from the streets is paramount to keeping London and the county forces safe, safeguarding vulnerable individuals on the cusp of violence is also just as important," she added.
"Some of those arrested exploit children and vulnerable people to help further their criminality and we remain committed to working with partners to identify people at risk of exploitation and provide them with the wrap-around support they require." Officers focused on drug dealing, modern slavery, firearms offences, knife possession, burglary and vehicle and catalytic converter theft.
