Confrontation between Jordan and pro-Iranian militants in Syria
Note that the Jordanian army intensified raids against drug traffickers after a clash in December 2023 with pro-Iranian militants transporting large quantities of drugs, weapons and explosives across the border with Syria.
Jordan and its Western allies blame the surge in smuggling on Iran-backed Hezbollah, which is based in Lebanon, and other Iranian-backed groups that control much of southern Syria. Iran and Hezbollah deny these accusations.
We add that Syria has become the main destination for the multi-billion dollar drug trade, and Jordan is an important transit route to the oil-rich countries of the Persian Gulf, the United States and Western Europe.
Recall that the day before Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps attacked targets near the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, in Syria, with ballistic missiles, and also fired at Pakistan.
