The Jordan Armed Forces–Arab Army (JAF) announced that the Southern Military Zone thwarted an attempt to smuggle a large quantity of narcotics using two drones along one of its border fronts early Friday.

Border Guard units detected the two unmanned aerial vehicles operating within the zone's area of responsibility and engaged them in accordance with the rules of engagement. The drones were successfully brought down, along with their payloads, inside Jordanian territory.

The operation was carried out in coordination with the security and military agencies and the Anti-Narcotics Department. The seized narcotics were transferred to the relevant authorities for legal action.

The JAF affirmed that all infiltration and smuggling attempts are dealt with through a high state of readiness and discipline, reflecting the efficiency and professionalism of the forces deployed along the Kingdom's border frontiers.
