"Jordanian Air Strikes in Southern Syria Kill 10, Say Activists"

Suspected Jordanian air strikes in southern Syria have killed at least 10 people, including children, in residential areas of Arman and nearby Malah. The strikes are believed to be part of Jordan's efforts to combat drug smuggling from Syria, particularly of the amphetamine Captagon. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights condemned the "massacre" and reported that this was the third time this year that Jordanian warplanes had "violated Syrian territory". Jordan has previously announced clashes with armed smugglers attempting to cross from Syria, indicating an escalation in its efforts to combat drug trafficking.
