Eastern Military Region Foils Drug-Smuggling Attempt Using Guided Balloons
Amman, Sept. 7 (Petra) -- The Eastern Military Region early Monday foiled an attempt to smuggle a large quantity of narcotics using guided balloons within its area of responsibility.

The seized materials were referred to the relevant authorities for the necessary legal action.
The Jordanian Armed Forces reaffirmed their continued efforts to counter smuggling and infiltration attempts along the borders, monitor the various methods and means used in such activities, and take the necessary operational measures to prevent and address them.
