Amman, Nov. 11 (Petra) -- Teams from the Ministry of Water and Irrigation, in cooperation with the Miyahuna Company and the Public Security Directorate (PSD), dismantled four illegal taps on major water transmission lines in the Al-Lubban area south of Amman on Wednesday.

The violations involved illegally diverting water to nearby farms and selling it via water tankers, according to a ministry statement. Maintenance crews immediately moved to repair the affected pipeline network.

In a related enforcement action, ministry inspection teams intercepted a drilling rig operating an unauthorized well in the Al-Khadhra area south of Amman. A second rig at the site was also seized alongside equipment, oxygen cylinders, pumps, and tools, while official violation reports were filed.
