(AP) Karin Laub - Jordan's military on Monday unveiled a new phase of a border surveillance system that U.S. officials say provides an effective defense against infiltration attempts, including by Islamic State militants. The system, partially funded by the U.S., includes radar and surveillance towers that enable Jordanian forces to spot infiltrators several km. before they reach the border, said Col. Robert Paddock, defense attache at the U.S. Embassy in Amman. "They can see anywhere along the entire border, what is going on, and then they can take appropriate action." With the completion of the second phase, the system now operates along all of the Jordanian-Syrian border. Work along Jordan's border with Iraq is underway and is to be completed by the end of the year. "What we are talking about is the ability of individuals to try to infiltrate the border and this is a highly effective defense against that," said Alice Wells, the U.S. ambassador to Jordan.2015-06-10 00:00:00Full Article
