In Sahab, south of Amman, authorities also detected two residential complexes and a commercial complex illegally tapping into water lines through unauthorized connections.
The ministry said the violations were removed, the drilling rig was confiscated and the sites were restored to their previous condition. Official reports were prepared and referred to the relevant authorities to complete investigations and take action against those responsible.
