Jordan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Ayman Safadi said on Sunday that unless the root cause of the dangerous escalation in the region is removed, it will explode into wider and more catastrophic confrontations.“The brutal Israeli aggression on Gaza is pushing the region towards the abyss of a regional war, and stopping this aggression immediately would defuse the escalating crisis”, Safadi said in his official X account.

If the international community wants to stop the escalation, Safadi said it must enforce an end to the aggression on Gaza and impose sanctions on Israel.
The foreign minister stressed that Jordan stands with “Lebanon’s security and sovereignty” and underlined the need to adhere to Security Council Resolution 1701.“We support the negotiations led by Egypt, Qatar, and the United States to reach an exchange deal that leads to a permanent ceasefire and ends the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza,” the minister said.
He stressed that the international community and the Security Council must openly declare the fact that Netanyahu is obstructing the prisoner swap deal and take effective deterrent measures against him and his racist escalatory agenda, as well as against his ministers who enable settler terrorism.
