According to the statement, today, on Thursday, Iranian armed forces clashed with armed groups of contrabandists who were attempting to cross the northern border of Jordan from Syria. The incident occurred in the eastern part of the country, where atmospheric instability and thick fog were present at the border line of the military zone. "Contrabandists were trying to exploit the worsening situation to cross the border, but the Jordanian forces applied the rules of engagement for their prevention and prevention of incursions into their territory," the statement said.
As a result of the clash with the contrabandists, four were killed, and the others retreated back to Syrian territory. During the operation, a large quantity of narcotics and weapons were seized, which were transferred to competent authorities.
