Amman: Law enforcement has reiterated advisories cautioning against engagement with fabricated social media profiles specifically designed to provoke sectarian discord and ethnic antagonism.

According to Jordan News Agency, the Public Security Directorate's spokesperson confirmed that the Cybercrime Unit is actively engaged in monitoring and countering these malicious online accounts, operated by individuals across multiple jurisdictions, in close coordination with the Public Prosecutor's Office.
