Australian authorities have seized the country's largest ice shipment in history.
Border Force officers detected almost 1.6 tonnes of the drug - with a street value of over $1.2billion - hidden in speakers sent from Bangkok, Thailand.
Officers picked the cargo shipment for further inspection in a targeting operation and, after being x-rayed at Melbourne Container Examination Facility, they noticed anomalies in the speakers.
They then took the speakers apart and found vacuum-sealed bags of the drug inside.
