Al-Tarawneh: Smugglers boost drone and balloon drug flows
The article discusses the escalation of drug smuggling across the Jordanian borders, with an increasing use of advanced methods such as drones and electronically-guided balloons. Experts explained that the shift in smuggling routes, which are now more concentrated in the southern and western regions, is due to economic and security factors. Additionally, smugglers' ability to repeat their attempts and the rise in seized quantities have increased, especially given the higher prices of drugs in target markets. Emphasis was also placed on the efforts of the Jordanian armed forces and security agencies in countering these operations, through enhanced surveillance and advanced technologies. It was noted that most smuggling activities are driven by financial motives, with a significant portion of drugs being exported outside Jordan. Meanwhile, security threats and challenges along the borders continue to grow due to the use of sophisticated methods by smugglers.
