- Investigations are ongoing on the smuggling attempt
AMMAN: Jordan foiled an attempt by foreign-backed militants to smuggle arms into its territory, a security official told state news agency PETRA on Wednesday.
Security services seized the arms and detained the smugglers, who were Jordanians, in March.
“Investigations and operations are ongoing,” read the PETRA statement.
Jordan had recently blocked several attempts to smuggle arms including mines, explosives, Kalashnikov rifles, and Katyusha rockets.
