Jordan has joined the international push for an arms embargo on Israel to end the prolonged war on Gaza, following similar actions by France and Spain. Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi emphasized that Israel’s war crimes would only stop with restrictions on arms sales. He urged the UN Security Council to pass a resolution banning weapons sales to Israel to hold its leaders accountable. Safadi highlighted the recent injury of UN peacekeepers in Lebanon by an Israeli strike as further evidence for the need to halt arms sales. France, Spain, and the UK have all made calls to limit weapons deliveries to Israel, but the US and Germany continue to provide support. Israel’s relentless war on Gaza has resulted in thousands of casualties and widespread destruction. Safadi has been vocal in condemning Israel’s aggression and violence in Gaza, calling for immediate action to halt the bloodshed and devastation.
