(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency)

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.
