It's part of the police's latest operation targeting people suspected of being involved with drug related crimes.

The men - aged between of 24 and 31 - were arrested on Monday (March 27) after officers carried out a raid warrant in Barton Hill.

They were then charged with a number of offences as part of the police's ongoing regional operation of targeting people suspected of being involved in drug-related crimes.

They appeared at Bristol Magistrates Court yesterday.
