Amman, Oct. 8 (Petra) -- The Jordanian Judicial Council wrapped up an extensive training program focused on combating environmental crimes, in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment and the Governance Strengthening Project (GSP), funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
