Jordanian FM: The displacement of Palestinians is a direct threat to our national security
Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Al-Safadi said that preventing the entry of food, medicine and fuel into the Gaza Strip is a war crime, stressing that Jordan “will do whatever is necessary” to prevent the displacement of Palestinians.
During the Manama Security Dialogue summit in Bahrain, Al-Safadi said, "We will never allow this to happen (the displacement of Palestinians). It is a war crime and will be a direct threat to our national security."
He asked, "I do not understand how Israel can achieve its goal of destroying" the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)?
The Jordanian minister said that Israel's war on Gaza "is not self-defense, but rather blatant aggression."
He stressed that "nothing can justify the war in Gaza, and it does not achieve security for Israel."
The Israeli aggression against Gaza caused the displacement of more than 1,650,000 people inside the Strip, out of a total population of 2.2 million.
The Israeli war on Gaza left more than 12,000 martyrs - including 4,710 children and 3,160 women - in addition to 29,800 injured, 70% of whom were children and women, according to official Palestinian sources.
