Drug smuggling from Israel to Jordan via balloons and drones
The report from the British newspaper "The Telegraph" highlights the escalation of drug smuggling methods from Israel to Jordan using guided balloons and unmanned aerial vehicles (drones), aiming to bypass border surveillance. Several attempted smuggling operations involving millions of pills and large quantities of narcotics have been thwarted, amid rising drug prices in the Jordanian market, which encourages criminal networks to expand their operations. The report also discusses the discrepancies between Jordanian and Israeli accounts of smuggling activities, as political tensions between the two countries persist amidst intertwined issues of organized crime and political disputes, especially following the fall of the Assad regime in Syria. This has led to increased activity of smuggling networks along the northern border.
