AMMAN, Jordan — Jordan’s foreign minister tells his Iranian counterpart that the kingdom would not allow any parties to violate its airspace, as the region braces for Israel’s retaliation against Iran’s ballistic missile attack earlier this month

Jordan will “not be a battlefield for anyone and will not allow any party to violate its sovereignty and airspace and threaten its citizens’ security,” Ayman Safadi says in a meeting with Iran’s top diplomat Abbas Araghchi.
