AMMAN — His Majesty King Abdullah, during a meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Saturday, urged stepping up international efforts to impose a ceasefire in Gaza. During a meeting on the sidelines of the 60th Munich Security Conference, His Majesty said the international community must ensure the protection of innocent civilians facing dire conditions as a result of the ongoing war, according to a Royal Court statement.
The King called for ensuring the continuous flow of humanitarian and medical aid to Gaza, especially as the Strip continues to face a severe shortage in basic necessities such as food, water, medicine, electricity and fuel.
His Majesty warned that the Israeli attack on Rafah will lead to another humanitarian disaster that could further displace Gazans, stressing Jordan’s rejection of any attempt to displace the Palestinians internally or externally.
