Ammon News - Jordan has reaffirmed its dedication to supporting humanitarian efforts in Gaza, with its Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Mahmoud Daifallah Hmoud, highlighting significant contributions during a UN Security Council session on the Palestinian crisis.

Hmoud detailed that Jordan, in coordination with international partners, has delivered 51,000 tons of aid to Gaza through 117 convoys carrying over 4,000 containers, valued at $133 million.

Additionally, Jordan facilitated 53 airlift operations, including 13 flights by the Royal Jordanian Air Force. Around 40 countries and international organizations have joined in supporting 399 humanitarian missions across northern and southern Gaza, including aid for hospitals.

The Saudi representative strongly condemned what he described as "genocide" against the Palestinian people, reporting over 150,000 casualties, primarily women and children. He criticized restrictions on UNRWA activities in Gaza and denounced violations of Lebanon’s stability and the displacement of its people.

The Saudi envoy also condemned Israel’s continued violations, including those at Al-Aqsa Mosque, and underscored his country’s leadership of the ministerial committee established by the extraordinary Arab-Islamic summit.

He called on the international community to support Palestinian statehood and push for its recognition as a full member of the United Nations.

Turkey’s representative attributed the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon to decades of unchecked impunity for Israeli actions.

He criticized the lack of decisive measures by the Council, noting the deaths of nearly 300 UN staff members and the threats to key humanitarian operations. He called for an immediate ceasefire, unhindered humanitarian access, and civilian protection.

The Turkish envoy reiterated the importance of the General Assembly resolution from September 18, which called for an end to the illegal Israeli occupation and recognition of Palestine as a sovereign state.

He urged Security Council members to support a two-state solution and emphasized the collective responsibility to safeguard UNRWA operations until a lasting resolution is achieved.
