An official communique issued today by the local government denies that Britain is undertaking any military operations in the Akaba territory. Some members of the Transjordania Frontier Force and the Royal Air Force have been temporarily established there, the communique declares, in order to prevent Ibn Saud’s enemies from obtaining assistance.
