Jerash: Jerash Governor Malik Khreisat stressed that there will be zero tolerance toward those engaging in festive firing or committing other violations, pledging strict measures to protect lives and property during the announcement of Tawjihi (General Secondary Education) results.

According to Jordan News Agency, Khreisat stated that an operations room has been set up at the governorate headquarters to receive complaints and reports related to festive firing or celebratory convoys obstructing traffic. He emphasized that anyone caught firing a weapon or leaning out of a vehicle window will be referred to the public prosecutor for legal action. Full coordination is underway with the Jerash Police Directorate to monitor and track violators and illegal convoys, with firm administrative measures to be taken against them.

Khreisat urged families to celebrate lawfully and responsibly, avoiding festive firing and disruptive multi-vehicle convoys.

He confirmed that the authorities will track the sources of gunfire and have published dedicated phone numbers for reporting incidents, which will be handled confidentially and promptly.
