The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan conducted airstrikes in Syria against warehouses and hiding places of drug smugglers linked to pro-Iranian militias according to local intelligence officials.
Reports in Syria say that the attack occurred in the As-Suwayda area in southern Syria near the Jordanian border.
Lately, drug smuggling between the two countries increased and during December, there have even been confrontations between smugglers and the Jordanian military.
Sheikh Hikmat al-Hijri, spiritual leader of Syria's Druze community, said Monday that Suwayda's future could take several forms, full independence, autonomy under another state's protection, or union with another country, as he marked the first anniversary of the deadly July 2025 events in the southern Syrian province.
A U.S. air base in Jordan was targeted by Iranian ballistic missiles on Tuesday, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said, while calling on Jordanians to dismantle American bases in the kingdom.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said that the U.S. would take out Pickaxe Mountain in Iran, as he warned that Washington would continue to hit the country hard.
