Aqaba's water network under security custody
The Jordanian authorities have uncovered the largest water theft operation in Al-Aqaba Governorate. Organized networks were traced managing the extraction of water from main lines and distributing it illegally to commercial establishments and hotels in exchange for large sums of money. The network employed highly advanced technical expertise, connecting transfer lines to giant tanks exceeding 300 cubic meters in capacity, allowing them to bypass measurement and oversight systems and deplete vast amounts of water during the summer. The mastermind behind the operation, who oversaw financial transactions, has been arrested. This violation poses a threat to water security and societal stability, and strict legal measures are expected to be taken against him. This campaign is part of the state's efforts to enhance water security, with the ministry focusing on reducing losses, developing infrastructure, and utilizing non-traditional desalination sources to meet citizens' needs.
