Amman, June 9 (Petra) — The Eastern Military Zone foiled four
attempts to smuggle large quantities of narcotic substances using
electronically guided balloons within its area of responsibility
early Tuesday.
According to a military source, border guard units detected the
balloons and tracked their movement before intercepting and bringing
them down, along with their payloads, inside Jordanian territory.
The operation was carried out in coordination with security agencies
and the Anti-Narcotics Department.
The seized materials were subsequently transferred to the relevant
authorities for the necessary legal procedures.
