Jordan’s Eastern Military Zone successfully thwarted an attempt to smuggle narcotics into the country using balloons equipped with advanced electronic guidance systems. Border Guard units detected the balloons within their area of responsibility and engaged them, bringing them down along with their illicit cargo inside Jordanian territory. The operation was carried out in coordination with security agencies and the Anti-Narcotics Department, and the seized materials were handed over to the relevant authorities for legal action. The incident highlights the growing sophistication of smuggling methods used by criminal networks. It also underscores the high level of coordination between the Jordanian Armed Forces and security institutions. Authorities reaffirmed their commitment to safeguarding national security and combating all forms of drug trafficking.

Abba Father, we thank You for protecting the land and its people from harm. Continue to guard the borders and keep the nation safe. Lord, we pray that all efforts to spread harm, addiction, and crime may be stopped. In Jesus’ name. Amen (The Holy Bible, Ephesians 5:11).

Almighty God, grant wisdom to authorities handling this case, that justice may be carried out with integrity. Lord, strengthen and protect the men and women who serve bravely to defend peace and justice. Amen (The Holy Bible, Micah 6:8).
