Jordan's Intelligence Department foils terrorist plot

AMMAN, 8th January, 2018 (WAM) -- The Jordanian General Intelligence Department foiled a massive terrorist plot after it conducted an intensive and accurate follow-up operation and a preemptive effort, planned by a Daesh-backed cell during November 2017.

The said cell arranged to carry out a trove of terrorist operations synchronously aimed to tamper with national security and ignite havoc and intimation among citizens, according to Jordan New Agency.

The early intelligence follow-up endeavors led to the apprehension of 17 plotters involved in this heinous operation and seized rifles and other materials prepared to be used in the hideous plan.
