AMMAN — The Eastern Military Region command on Sunday foiled two separate attempts to smuggle a large quantity of narcotics utilising electronically-guided balloons on its front.

 

Border guard units, in coordination with security agencies and the Anti-Narcotics Department, detected and intercepted the devices, downing them along with their cargo inside Jordanian territory, according to a Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army (JAF) statement. The seized items were referred to the relevant authorities for necessary legal action.
