Amman, Aug. 26 (Petra) -- The Eastern Military Zone successfully intercepted an attempted drug smuggling operation early Tuesday, in which narcotics were being transported using balloons equipped with rudimentary guidance systems.

The suspicious activity was detected by Border Guard units, working in close coordination with security agencies and the Anti-Narcotics Department. The balloons were tracked, brought down within Jordanian territory, and the contraband was seized and transferred to the appropriate authorities for further investigation.
