The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A military maneuver named "Operation Hashem" was initiated on 8 April and it encircled the capital Amman.
- When Hussein asked Ali Abu Nuwar, the Army chief of staff, about the maneuver, he claimed that it was a normal military exercise.
