Amman, May 31 (Petra) -- The Public Security Directorate (PSD) has mobilized its specialized units across border centers to provide security, humanitarian, and logistics services to Jordanian and Arab pilgrims returning from the Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia.

Upon the arrival of the initial pilgrim convoys at the kingdom's borders, PSD personnel began administering support to streamline travel procedures and facilitate entry, the directorate said on Sunday.

The PSD's Residency and Borders Department, in coordination with other border authorities, has streamlined document processing to shorten wait times and maintain a steady flow of traffic at entry points.

The Highway Patrol Department is escorting transit convoys of foreign Arab pilgrims across Jordan's primary transport corridors, securing their routes from initial entry points to their final exit borders. Specialized rest stations have also been set up along major roads to offer logistical support.

Concurrently, the King Hussein Bridge Security Department has implemented targeted organizational plans to manage the return of Palestinian pilgrims traveling back to the Palestinian territories, aiming to reduce bottlenecks and speed up border clearance.

Civil Defense medical teams have also been deployed at key frontier sites to provide immediate first aid and healthcare services, with a focus on elderly and vulnerable travelers.

The PSD had previously expanded the operational capacity and staffing levels at all land borders in anticipation of the seasonal influx of pilgrims returning from the Islamic holy sites.
