Ammon News - Authorities arrested Wednesday a man responsible for publishing a social media post that caused panic and urged evacuation in the Azraq district.

According to a Public Security Directorate (PSS) statement, the post, which was falsely attributed to the PSD, prompted concern among residents before investigations led to the identification and arrest of the individual who created and disseminated it.
