Jordan says it foiled Muslim Brotherhood plot to attack kingdom with rockets, drones
2025-04-16
[IsraelTimes] 16 suspects linked to country’s largest opposition group said to have been trained and financed in Lebanon

Jordan said Tuesday that it had arrested 16 people linked to the Moslem Brüderbund who were trained and financed in Leb
...The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else?...
and had plotted attacks on targets inside the kingdom involving rockets and drones.

Authorities said at least one rocket was ready to be launched as part of an operation that had been under surveillance by security forces since 2021.

A security source said the suspects were connected to the Moslem Brüderbund, a Hamas

ally and Jordan’s largest opposition group, while the head of the cell who trained some of its members was based in Lebanon.

Hamas and the Brotherhood have been accused of fomenting anti-government street protests in Jordan amid the war in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
, which was sparked when thousands of forces of Evil stormed southern Israel on October 7, 2023, to kill some 1,200 people and take 251 hostages. The US-backed Hashemite Kingdom has a significant Paleostinian population.

In a statement released on social media, Jordan’s General Intelligence Department said the kingdom’s security forces found a rocket manufacturing facility alongside a drone factory, both of which were part of "the plot aimed at harming national security, sowing chaos and causing material destruction inside the kingdom."

Jordan’s government also published a video of confessions by the suspects, who had been referred to the state security court for trial.

Jordanian government front man Mohammad Momani said the country’s security forces found rockets in a secret hideout on the outskirts of Amman that were being manufactured with a range of 3-5 kilometers (1.8-3 miles) for use against targets inside the kingdom.

A security source said dozens of rockets were found.

Amer Al Sabaileh, a prominent security analyst, told Rooters that the thwarted plot involved "new tactics, rockets and drones."

"This means a complete change in the way the Moslem Brüderbund are dealing with Jordan and targeting its security," said Al Sabaileh.

Jordan, which expelled Hamas in 1999, enjoys relative stability compared with other countries in the region but has previously announced arrests on national security charges.

Last May, Jordanian officials said the country had thwarted an arms transfer from Hamas benefactor Iran, via Syria, to the Moslem Brüderbund in Jordan.
So the Jordanian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood has sold itself to Iran, joining Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad as Iran’s Sunni proxies against Israel. And like the others training with Hezbollah in Lebanon. Have they been issued their special purchase beepers yet?
Israel has also thwarted several arms-smuggling plots from Jordan, announcing in February that security forces had detained nine Israeli citizens and one West Bank Paleostinian on suspicion of running one smuggling route. Iranian officials also told The New York Times
