- Jordan rejects Palestinian displacement, emphasizing the imperative of ending hostilities
DUBAI: Jordan has warned against potential Israeli military action in Rafah, an area in the southern Gaza Strip that is densely populated by Palestinian refugees.
Sufyan Qudah, spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, reiterated Jordan’s firm rejection of Palestinian displacement, emphasizing the imperative of ending hostilities, protecting civilians, and facilitating their safe return to their homes.
He urged swift international intervention to halt Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, which has caused an “unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe.”
He also emphasized the urgent need for the UN Security Council to fulfill its responsibility by promptly imposing a ceasefire to avert further escalation.
Meanwhile, the ministry’s Operations and Consular Affairs Directorate disclosed ongoing efforts with relevant authorities to investigate the death of a Jordanian citizen in his residence in Ramallah in the West Bank.
The Jordanian Representative Office in Ramallah initiated procedures for repatriating the body of the deceased in coordination with the family once the investigation concludes.
