The anti-drug operations Verde Mar I and II were carried out by the Sinchis commandos along the right bank of the Huallaga River in 1979 and 1980, respectively. These operations inaugurated a series of large-scale interdictions against drug trafficking in the region. These operations are remembered in local memories as significant events that marked the beginning of anti-narcotics actions in the Upper Huallaga. These operations preceded the entry of the PCP-Sendero Luminoso into the area and contributed to the accumulation of widespread resentment towards the police forces among the local population.
