The Southern Jordanian Military Zone foiled an infiltration attempt by a trespasser to cross the Palestinian-Jordanian border into Jordan on Tuesday, preventing them from crossing into Jordanian territory through unauthorized means. 

A military source from the Jordan Armed Forces - Arab Army said the border guard forces swiftly implemented engagement protocols, leading to the apprehension of the trespasser. 

The Jordan News Agency (Petra) quoted a military source as saying that the border guards arrested the trespasser before handing him over to the relevant authorities pending further investigation.

The source also underlined the unwavering commitment of the Jordanian armed forces to safeguarding the nation's borders and their vigilance to deter any unlawful activities, including infiltration or smuggling.

Israeli media reported on Monday that the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have suspected that 7 individuals have conducted an infiltration operation into occupied Palestine through the Jordanian border.

Reports have underscored that the IOF managed to rush to the scene and successfully arrested 5 of the 7 suspected infiltrators and considered the "two others were able to enter" a danger to the surrounding settlements.

The infiltration operation came following Israeli allegations regarding thwarting the "smuggling of a large number of weapons" operation, last week, across the Jordanian border in the occupied West Bank's Al-Aghwar region.

Israeli fears of infiltration and shooting operations at the Jordanian border have increased especially following the operation carried out by Egyptian conscript Mohammad Salah on the Egyptian border fence of Sinai, which resulted in the killing of 3 Israeli occupation soldiers.

Analysts believed that a large number of infiltration attempts across the borders with occupied Palestine reflects the weakness of the IOF's ability to monitor and control alleged Israeli borders, which implied that there would exist a high probability of the recurrence of such incidents.
