Amman, Jordan – Jordan’s Foreign Minister, Ayman Safadi, has issued a warning regarding the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Gaza Strip during the upcoming Muslim fasting month of Ramadan. He expressed concerns that the escalation of violence could lead to a regional explosion, emphasizing the need for a peaceful resolution to prevent further casualties.
During a recent joint press conference with Bulgarian Foreign Minister Mariya Gabriel in Amman, Safadi highlighted the importance of ending the aggression as Ramadan approaches. He emphasized the escalating risks of continued warfare, emphasizing the need for immediate action to prevent further escalation.
As the holy month of Ramadan approaches, tensions in the region have heightened due to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Gaza. Safadi’s warning comes amid mounting casualties and concerns about the humanitarian conditions in the Gaza Strip, where many have been killed or injured as a result of the violence.
Gabriel also expressed her concerns about the situation in Gaza and praised Jordan’s role as a peacemaker in the region. She emphasized the need for international support to address the humanitarian crisis and work towards a peaceful resolution to the ongoing conflict.
The conflict between Israel and Gaza escalated in October, leading to a significant loss of life and injuries among Palestinians, particularly women and children. The humanitarian situation in Gaza has deteriorated, with widespread shortages of essential resources like water, electricity, and fuel, exacerbating the suffering of the population.
In January, the International Court of Justice issued a ruling ordering Israel to take measures to prevent genocide in Gaza and ensure the preservation of evidence of alleged acts of genocide. The ruling highlighted the urgency of addressing the humanitarian crisis and finding a peaceful resolution to the conflict to prevent further loss of life.
As tensions continue to rise in the region, the international community must prioritize efforts to de-escalate the conflict and address the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Safadi’s warning serves as a reminder of the urgent need for action to prevent further violence and instability in the region during the upcoming month of Ramadan.
