New Route for Smuggling Weapons: The Jordan-Israel Border
(Maariv-Hebrew-12Sep13) Asaf Gabor - The new fence along Israel's border with Egypt has blocked the smuggling of weapons into Israel, but smugglers are finding new routes via Jordan. "The Bedouin tribes in Sinai have made contact with local elements along the Israel-Jordan border, the Dead Sea, and the Jordan Valley, and are transferring weapons to them," a military source said. "Numerous weapons are being apprehended by [Israeli] security forces....In most cases, the weapons were headed to groups within the PA such as the Tanzim which operate in Palestinian refugee camps."
