“Jordan condemned the “resumption of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip” and called for an immediate ceasefire, in a statement released Friday by its Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Ministry spokesperson Sufyan Al-Qudah “called on the international community to assume its responsibility and to deter Israel from committing more crimes against civilians.”
Israel maintains it is targeting Hamas and that the terror group is embedding itself in civilian infrastructure, including hospitals and children’s playgrounds, that it uses for military purposes, making them legitimate targets.”
