The Eastern Military Zone early Wednesday thwarted an attempt to smuggle large quantities of narcotics from Syria into the Kingdom, according to a Jordan Armed Forces (JAF) – Arab Army source.
The source said that border guards applied the rules of engagement, forcing the inflators to retreat to Syrian territory, adding that large quantities of narcotics were seized after searching the area.
The source also stressed that the JAF would firmly deal with any infiltration or smuggling attempt in order to protect the Kingdom’s borders.
