We fight, We win
Jordanian authorities thwarted an Iranian scheme to smuggle arms into the kingdom, aimed at arming groups opposed to the monarchy and enabling them to conduct sabotage operations, according to Reuters, citing two Jordanian sources privy to the details. The kingdom moved to disrupt the plot.
The sources indicate that the weapons smuggling operation was facilitated by Iranian proxies in Syria, to arm a local Muslim Brotherhood faction in Jordan that has ties to Hamas’ armed forces. Jordanian security forces interdicted the shipment by arresting the cell members “of Palestinian origin” within Jordan in late March and seizing the weapons cargo.
