Jordan accuses Muslim Brotherhood of destabilizing kingdom, producing and stockpiling arms

Jordan’s interior minister accuses the country’s branch of the Muslim Brotherhood of seeking to destabilize the kingdom, as well as manufacturing and stockpiling weapons, after moving to ban the group.

Interior Minister Mazen al-Faraya tells reporters that “members of the so-called Muslim Brotherhood… are operating in the shadows and engage in activities that could undermine stability and security.” He adds that authorities found “explosives and weapons transported between Jordanian cities and stored in residential areas,” as well as covert missile manufacturing facilities and “training and recruitment operations” linked to the group.
