Jordan approves new Israeli ambassador
Jordan has approved the appointment of the new Israeli ambassador to the kingdom, according to reports in Hebrew-language media.
Last month, the Foreign Ministry announced the appointment of Amir Weissbrod as Israel’s new ambassador to Jordan.
The announcement came after Israel and Jordan reached an agreement to end a diplomatic standoff over the July 23, 2017, shooting deaths of two Jordanian men by an Israeli embassy security guard. Israel says the guard opened fire in self-defense after being attacked by one of the men.
