A spokesperson from the General Command of the Jordanian Armed Forces (JAF) - Arab Army has officially confirmed that the eastern military region successfully intercepted and shot down a drone originating from Syrian territory Sunday.

This action was taken within the region's designated jurisdiction as part of the JAF's ongoing commitment to secure the Kingdom's security and border protection.

The military's actions are aligned with its unwavering dedication to its patriotic duty toward the nation.

The military source revealed that the Border Guard forces, in collaboration with the Anti-Narcotics Department and military security services, identified an illicit attempt to breach the border from Syrian land into Jordanian territory.

This unauthorized intrusion was thwarted within Jordan's borders through targeted intervention.

Following a meticulous search and investigation of the area, the drone was located and subsequently handed over to the relevant authorities.

Emphasizing its resolute stance, the source underlined that the JAF remains steadfast in confronting any threat along the border and responds with unwavering resolve to any efforts aimed at destabilizing the nation's security or instilling fear among its citizens.
