Jordan condemns Israeli plan to expand control over Gaza as humanitarian aid efforts continue

AMMAN: Jordan on Friday condemned Israel’s newly approved plan to expand military control over Gaza, warning it threatens prospects for peace and deepens the humanitarian crisis in the besieged enclave. The kingdom’s Ministry of Foreign and Expatriate Affairs said the move, backed by the Israeli security cabinet, would “solidify the occupation” and undermine the two-state solution, Jordan News Agency reported. Ministry spokesperson Sufian Al-Qudah said the plan violated international law and continued the Israeli government’s use of starvation and siege as weapons against civilians.
