Ammon News - His Majesty King Abdullah II on Tuesday stressed that Israel’s war on Gaza must stop, as the unfolding humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza has reached unspeakable levels.

During a joint press conference with the German Chancellor, His Majesty said that aid cannot be politicised and the targeting of starving civilians gathered to receive aid is unconscionable.

"We reiterate our calls for an immediate and lasting ceasefire, full respect for international humanitarian law, and unimpeded access for humanitarian assistance to all parts of Gaza," the King added.

Jordan has led regional efforts by dispatching and coordinating aid convoys to Gaza, providing extensive medical support, and facilitating safe passage for the injured, His Majesty noted.

The King also stressed that Syria’s stability is vital to the region. Sustained international support is essential to prevent a return to conflict, and to empower Syrians to rebuild a nation that ensures security, stability and prosperity for its diverse society.

In addition, His Majesty stated that Jordan and Germany enjoy a deep and enduring partnership that is rooted in shared values, mutual respect, and robust cooperation across political, economic, and humanitarian spheres.
