Jordan urges firm international response to Gaza humanitarian crisis
Ammon News - Jordan's Permanent Representative to the Arab League, Ambassador Amjad Al-Adailah, has called for urgent and decisive international action in response to the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza. He cited ongoing Israeli violations in Gaza and the West Bank, including infringements on the legal and religious status of Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem and Hebron, as a dire affront to international conscience and human dignity. Speaking on Monday during a special session at the Arab League headquarters in Cairo, which hosted Vietnamese President Luong Cuong, Ambassador Al-Adailah delivered the keynote address on behalf of the Arab League Council. Jordan currently holds the rotating presidency of the Council at the ministerial level. Al-Adailah emphasized that the deteriorating conditions in Gaza, now persisting for more than 20 months, demand a unified global response. He called for the cessation of Israeli military aggression, the immediate lifting of the blockade on Gaza, and an end to what he described as policies of collective punishment and forced starvation. He urged the international community to ensure unrestricted entry of humanitarian aid into the territory, enable United Nations agencies to fulfill their mandates, and provide international protection for the Palestinian people. "The tragedy unfolding in Gaza is not just a regional crisis; it is a moral and humanitarian test for the global community," Al-Adailah said. In welcoming the Vietnamese president, Al-Adailah paid tribute to Vietnam's historical struggle for independence, describing it as a powerful symbol of human resilience and the pursuit of national freedom. He noted that Vietnam was among the first countries to recognize the Palestinian right to self-determination, in alignment with international law and the Arab Peace Initiative. "The Vietnamese experience stands as one of the most iconic in the history of human struggle for liberation, a reminder of the will of peoples to attain freedom, dignity, and independence," he said. Al-Adailah highlighted the Vietnamese president's visit as a significant step in enhancing Arab–Vietnamese cooperation. He expressed confidence that the visit would further strengthen diplomatic, economic, and cultural ties between the Arab world and Vietnam. "This visit reaffirms our mutual commitment to multilateralism, respect for sovereignty, and the defense of justice in international affairs," he stated, underscoring the importance of deeper coordination in global forums.

Jaghbir: Smear Campaigns Against Jordan's Support for Gaza Are 'Unjust and Unacceptable Denial' - Jordan News
Fathi Jaghbir, President of both the Jordan and Amman Chambers of Industry, affirmed that smear campaigns targeting Jordan's role in supporting Gaza constitute 'unjust and unacceptable denial' and a distortion of a longstanding national commitment led by His Majesty King Abdullah II. He emphasized that the industrial chambers have been a key part of this effort since the first day of the Israeli aggression on Gaza. اضافة اعلان In a press statement, Jaghbir said the chambers of industry in Jordan launched a large-scale campaign on October 9, 2023, to collect financial and in-kind donations for Gaza, in full coordination with the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization (JHCO) to ensure that aid reaches the Strip swiftly and effectively. 'What we are witnessing in terms of incitement campaigns against Jordan and attacks on its embassies is an unacceptable distortion—not just of institutions but of Jordan's steadfast and principled role in supporting the Palestinian people,' Jaghbir said. He stressed that all Jordanians reject any attempts to diminish or deny Jordan's contributions, affirming that supporting Gaza is a national duty and an honor, not merely symbolic solidarity. Jaghbir underlined that the industrial chambers worked in full partnership with the JHCO to be part of a comprehensive national effort led by Jordan's leadership in support of Gaza—an effort that has never ceased, despite mounting challenges and pressures. He warned that attempts to discredit this role, whether through targeting Jordanian institutions or inciting against the Kingdom, are a direct attack on a firm official and popular stance that is non-negotiable. 'What's happening—this deliberate defamation of Jordan—is a blatant disregard for facts,' he concluded, stressing that standing with Gaza has never been up for debate, but is a united national choice made by both the state and the people.
