JCA participates in Palestine reconstruction forum
AMMAN — The Arab and International Organisation to Construct in Palestine on Saturday convened its forum in Istanbul under the theme 'From Rubble, We Build Hope,' drawing broad participation from Jordanian, Arab, and international stakeholders.
The Jordanian Contractors Association (JCA) participated in the forum's sessions and in meetings of the Supreme Committee for Reconstruction in Palestine, represented by JCA President Fouad Duwairi.
In his remarks, Duwairi underscored the association's active role in supporting reconstruction efforts in Palestine and Gaza, highlighting financial contributions made by Jordanian contractors and technical studies conducted by the JCA on reconstruction methodologies.
He reaffirmed the association's steadfast commitment to the Palestinian people, especially in Gaza, and pledged the continued engagement of Jordanian contractors in rebuilding efforts.
Duwairi noted that Jordanian contractors have donated machinery and equipment to support reconstruction and debris removal operations. "A detailed list of these resources has been submitted to the reconstruction committee."
He added that the removal and processing of rubble are expected to take approximately one year, with Gaza divided into designated operational zones to facilitate the process.
The JCA, Duwairi said, has also participated in several international conferences aimed at identifying effective mechanisms for recycling construction materials to support sustainable rebuilding in Gaza.
At the forum's conclusion, the Arab and International Organisation to Construct in Palestine honoured Duwairi in recognition of the JCA's active engagement and significant contributions to reconstruction initiatives.

Iran thanks Jordan for its stance after 'Israeli' attack
Jordan's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ayman Safadi held a phone call with Iranian Foreign Minister Dr. Abbas Araghchi on Thursday, during which he strongly condemned the 'Israeli' aggression against Iran, calling it a dangerous escalation and a violation of international law. According to an official readout, Safadi reiterated Jordan's firm rejection of the attack, describing it as a 'serious breach of Iran's sovereignty' and warning that such provocations risk dragging the region into a broader conflict. He also stressed the need for collective efforts to de-escalate tensions and prevent the region from sliding into 'a new regional war that threatens both regional and global peace.' The Iranian foreign minister, for his part, thanked Jordan for its 'clear and principled stance' in condemning the 'Israeli' strikes and for rejecting any further escalation that could destabilize the region. Safadi emphasized that while Jordan continues to condemn 'Israeli' aggression and advocate for calm, it will not tolerate any violation of its own sovereignty or threats to the safety of its citizens. He made it clear that Jordan 'will not be a battlefield for any party' and will respond decisively to any breach of its airspace, whether by 'Israel' or Iran. 'This is a firm and longstanding Jordanian position,' Safadi added, 'and both Israel and Iran are fully aware of it.' The Jordanian foreign minister also stressed that de-escalation can only be achieved by addressing the root causes of conflict in accordance with international law. He reiterated Jordan's position that lasting security in the region depends on upholding the sovereignty of all states and ensuring the legitimate rights of peoples, especially the Palestinian people's right to freedom, security, and an independent state on their own land.

A military source stated that Royal Jordanian Air Force planes are currently conducting intensive patrols and air sorties along the border areas. These operations aim to monitor the skies and detect any attempts to breach Jordanian airspace by any party, in order to preserve the kingdom's sovereignty and ensure the safety of its citizens.
