Jordan Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi’s office announces that it will be hosting a summit for Arab foreign ministers tomorrow in Amman with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, as first reported yesterday by The Times of Israel.
Participating in the summit will also be the foreign ministers from the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Egypt along with the secretary-general of the Palestine Liberation Organization’s Executive Committee Hussein al-Sheikh.
Jordan says the goal of the summit is to “stop the Israeli war on Gaza and the humanitarian disaster that it is causing.”
The Arab ministers will meet first on their own and then hold a meeting with Blinken during which they will reiterate their call for an immediate ceasefire and for the urgent delivery of aid into the Gaza Strip, the Jordanian statement says.
The ministers will also “discuss the repercussions [of the war] and ways to end this dangerous deterioration that threatens the security of the entire region,” says Jordan’s foreign ministry.
