FBI's Kash Patel: India's Role in US Fentanyl Crisis
The FBI is working with the Indian government to stop the flow of fentanyl into the United States.
This dangerous drug is causing many overdose deaths in the US.
Drug dealers mix fentanyl into other drugs, so people often don't know they are taking it.
Kash Patel, from the FBI, explained that the fentanyl is made in Mexico but shipped to India.
From India, the cartels are sending it to Vancouver, Canada, and then into the US.
The FBI is working with India to stop this from happening.

The fentanyl crisis involves a surge in overdose deaths in the US, largely caused by illegally made fentanyl.
