Amman to install smart cameras for smoking enforcement
The Greater Amman Municipality is preparing to launch a two-year plan for 2026–2028 aimed at promoting a smoke-free environment in the city. The plan includes the use of smart technologies to monitor violations, such as electronic systems and sensors, as well as expanding awareness campaigns and inspections in parks, schools, and public facilities. During the first eight months of 2026, more than 25,000 people benefited from awareness programs, with 639 lectures and educational sessions conducted. Additionally, the “Nafas Nazeef” campaign reached 61,000 users. Specialized clinics supporting smoking cessation recorded 418 individuals using their services, with 218 successfully quitting, bringing the total number of quitters since the program's inception to over 2,177 people. The plan aims to strengthen enforcement against smoking, broaden educational outreach, and leverage modern technologies to foster a healthier, smoke-free environment in the city.
