Israeli Army Chief of Staff Herzi Halevy said on Wednesday that thwarting weapons smuggling operations from the Jordanian border led to impressive operational achievements in recent months, as he put it.
This came after a tour he made on the border, following a security assessment session he held with senior officers responsible for the Jordan Valley areas.
The officers briefed Halevy on “countermeasures to prevent weapons smuggling” into the West Bank and even into “Israel.”
An Israeli army statement said that since last year, more than 400 smuggling operations of weapons, explosive devices and ammunition had been thwarted.
