Amman, June 30 (Petra) — Border guard forces at the Southern
Military Zone on Tuesday thwarted an attempt to smuggle narcotics
using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) on the zone’s western front,
according to a statement from the Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army.
The operation was conducted within the military zone’s area of
responsibility in close coordination with military security agencies
and the Anti-Narcotics Department.
The border guard forces detected the drone attempting to cross the
frontier and applied the rules of engagement, downing the aircraft
inside Jordanian territory. The confiscated illicit cargo was
subsequently handed over to the competent authorities for legal
processing.
