VIDEO - Jordan’s Intelligence foils plots aimed at undermining national security

Jordan’s General Intelligence Directorate (GID) has thwarted multiple plots intended to undermine national security and incite chaos and physical sabotage within the Kingdom.

According to an official statement, the GID arrested 16 individuals involved in these plots, which had been under close and continuous surveillance since 2021.

The uncovered plans reportedly involved the local manufacturing of rockets using both domestic tools and components imported for illicit purposes. Authorities also seized explosive materials, firearms, and a ready-to-use missile that had been concealed.

Additional activities included a project to produce drones, as well as the recruitment and training of individuals within Jordan, some of whom were also sent abroad for further preparation.

The GID confirmed that all related cases have been referred to the State Security Court for legal proceedings.
