Jordan unveils border surveillance system
‘Jordan has unveiled a partially US-funded border surveillance system to secure its borders from any infiltration by terrorists from Iraq and Syria.
The border security system, which includes radar and surveillance towers, provides Jordanian forces with the capacity to pinpoint the location of suspected infiltrators several kilometers before they reach the country’s borders, Colonel Robert Paddock, a defense attache at the US Embassy in the capital, Amman, revealed on Monday.
Jordan, one of Washington’s regional allies in the so-called US-led coalition fighting terrorism, shares borders with Iraq and Syria, which have been beset by deadly violence perpetrated by terrorist groups, especially the ISIL Takfiri group.’
