On Monday, the Ministry of Health in Jordan began implementing new measures to prevent the sale of tobacco products to individuals under 18 years old. This comes as part of its efforts to reduce the health hazards of smoking and protect public health. The measures include intensifying regulatory campaigns and field inspections, especially near schools, to ensure compliance with relevant legislation. Jordanian laws governing tobacco sales impose fines ranging from one thousand to three thousand dinars, as well as the possibility of closing the violating establishment. Penalties for offenders also include imprisonment from three to six months. The ministry has called on parents to monitor and educate their children about the dangers of smoking, particularly at a young age, which can lead to addiction. Additionally, the Prime Minister emphasized the importance of tightening oversight and closing any establishments that sell or serve tobacco to those under 18, to better safeguard the community from its health impacts.
