Jordan calls for UNSC meeting on Gaza

Jordan calls for an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council following Israel’s ground invasion of Gaza.

Jordan’s UN mission says Thursday night that no time has been set yet for the meeting. The Security Council is already scheduled to hold an emergency meeting Friday morning on the shooting down of a Malaysian airliner in Ukraine.

Jordan is the Arab representative on the Security Council.

Thousands of Israeli soldiers have launched a ground invasion on the 10th-day campaign of heavy air bombardments to try to destroy Hamas’s rocket-firing abilities and the tunnels that militants use to infiltrate Israel.
