Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi speaks by phone with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken to discuss “the dangerous escalation taking place in the region and the steps required to stop it,” according to the Jordanian readout.
Safadi stresses that stopping Israel’s war in Gaza “must be the main immediate priority.” He also repeats his condemnation of the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, calling it “a heinous crime, a violation of international law, and a dangerous escalation.”
