2024-02-06 Jordanians On Warpath After ‘Amman Helping Israel’ Expose; ‘End Zionist Land Bridge Else…’ The Jordanian regime is facing revolt over allegedly helping Israel amid the war in Gaza. Hundreds of Jordanians held protests demanding an end to the “Zionist Land Bridge.” The so-called “Zionist Land Bridge” is aimed at circumventing the impact of attacks on ships heading to Israeli ports by Iran-aligned Ansar Allah, also known as Houthis. “We stand united to block the land route that saves the Zionist enemy,” said protesters. Israeli media reported the arrival of shipments from the UAE through a new alternative route that passes through Saudi Arabia and Jordan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sn3c9DkfPpw
2023-12-05 Jordan’s King Abdullah says world should condemn any attempt to forcibly expel Palestinians Jordan’s King Abdullah said on Tuesday the world should condemn any attempt by Israel to create conditions that would forcibly displace Palestinians within the war-devastated Gaza Strip or outside its borders.
In remarks carried by state media after a meeting with the Cypriot president in Amman, the monarch again called for an immediate ceasefire and warned that Israel’s relentless bombing campaign was leading to a “dangerous deterioration” in the situation. Abdullah has lobbied Western leaders to pile pressure on Israel to allow an uninterrupted flow of aid and open crossings it controls to bring in sufficient level of aid needed.
Israel now controls the volume and nature of aid entering to over 2.3 million inhabitants under siege, according to U.N. officials and humanitarian workers. UNRWA officials say only a trickle of the aid the enclave needs is getting through the Rafah border crossing with Egypt which NGOs and officials say can only handle a fraction of the needs. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/jordan-s-king-abdullah-says-world-should-condemn-any-attempt-to-forcibly-expel-palestinians/ar-AA1l2KQP
