President of the Senate: We Will Not Allow Saboteurs to Tamper with Our Social Fabric During a session of the Senate today, Tuesday, the President of the Senate, Faisal Al-Fayez, called on political parties, particularly those represented in the House of Representatives, to use the parliamentary platform to express their political positions on various issues. He urged them not to take to the streets or call for mass demonstrations, emphasizing the need to avoid exploiting the emotions of citizens regarding events in Gaza and the West Bank. Al-Fayez pointed out that some parties may exploit such protests to harm the nation. اضافة اعلان He reaffirmed Jordan's commitment to Arabism and its refusal to allow the battle with Israel to be brought inside Jordan or to divert attention from what is happening in Palestinian territories. He stressed that the priority is to maintain national security and internal stability under the Hashemite leadership, emphasizing that this sacred land will not be harmed by those who harbor hatred. Al-Fayez stated that populist and provocative rhetoric that inflames emotions does not serve the Palestinian cause, but rather leads to chaos within society and puts pressure on security forces, who are working tirelessly to protect the nation's internal security, as well as its borders from external threats and dangers. He expressed full support for the Hashemite leadership, stating that King Abdullah II is the "safety valve" for Jordan. He urged Jordanians to disregard those who incite strife, calling on all national factions to unite behind the Hashemite leadership. Al-Fayez emphasized that any attempts to undermine the security forces or the military should be met with firmness. Al-Fayez also highlighted Jordan's leadership role in supporting the Palestinian cause, recalling the historical stances of our ancestors, from Sharif Hussein bin Ali to King Abdullah II, in supporting the Palestinian people's struggle. He reaffirmed that Jordan will always remain the first defender of Palestinian rights, stressing that the Palestinian cause remains a top priority for King Abdullah II. In conclusion, Al-Fayez paid tribute to our armed forces and security agencies for their efforts in preserving Jordan's security and stability, stressing that any attempts to destabilize or harm our national unity will be met with full strength and determination.

Argentinian embassy in 'Israel' to be moved to Jerusaelm, announces president Milei

Argentine President Javier Milei said Wednesday his country would move its embassy in 'Israel' to Jerusalem, the status of which is one of the most delicate issues in the 'Israel'-Palestinian conflict. "I am proud to announce before you that in 2026 we will make effective the move of our embassy to the city of west Jerusalem," Milei said in a speech in the 'Israeli' parliament during an official state visit. Argentina's embassy is currently located near Tel Aviv. 'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thanked Milei for his decision. 'Javier, you are a true friend. With this visit, we are bringing our relations to new heights. 12,000 kilometers separate Buenos Aires, Israel and the Knesset in Jerusalem. This great distance is compensated for by the closeness of our hearts,' Netanyahu said.

Jordan Strongly Condemns Ben-Gvir's Storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque - Jordan News

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of Jordan strongly condemned the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque/Al-Haram Al-Sharif by Israel's extremist National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, under the protection of the Israeli occupation police. The ministry labeled the act as a blatant violation of international law and international humanitarian law, describing it as an unacceptable provocation and escalation that must be stopped immediately by Israel, as the occupying power. اضافة اعلان Ministry spokesperson Ambassador Dr. Sufian Qudah affirmed the Kingdom's firm rejection and strong condemnation of the repeated and provocative incursions by Minister Ben-Gvir, and the facilitation by Israeli police of such actions. He emphasized that these incursions coincide with restrictions imposed on Muslim worshippers, which constitute a flagrant violation of the legal and historical status quo of Al-Aqsa Mosque/Al-Haram Al-Sharif. These acts are seen as attempts to impose a temporal and spatial division of the site and a desecration of its sanctity. Ambassador Qudah stressed that such practices do not change the reality that East Jerusalem is an occupied territory, and Israel has no sovereignty over it. He further warned of the grave consequences of the continued illegal and provocative violations of Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem, urging Israel, as the occupying power, to immediately halt all such provocative actions by Ben-Gvir. These actions, Qudah said, are part of the extremist Israeli government's policy aimed at escalating tensions in the occupied West Bank, conducting raids on Palestinian cities, and violating the sanctity of religious sites in occupied Jerusalem. He reiterated that Al-Aqsa Mosque, in its entirety of 144 dunums, is a solely Islamic holy site, and that the Jerusalem Awqaf Department, affiliated with Jordan's Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs, is the sole legal authority responsible for managing and overseeing all affairs of the mosque and regulating entry to it.

Ben Gvir Storms Al-Aqsa Mosque Compound Again Amid International Condemnation - Jordan News

Ben Gvir Storms Al-Aqsa Mosque Compound Again Amid International Condemnation Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound once again on Wednesday, under heavy police protection and without prior public announcement, according to a statement by the Islamic Waqf Department in Jerusalem. اضافة اعلان The Waqf confirmed that Ben Gvir entered the mosque courtyards accompanied by Israeli police officers. This marks yet another of his repeated incursions into the sacred site, despite widespread condemnation from Arab and Islamic countries. Such visits by senior Israeli officials are typically pre-approved by the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Since taking office at the end of 2022, Ben Gvir has carried out multiple high-profile visits to the site, which is considered the third holiest in Islam and a flashpoint in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. His most recent prior incursion was on May 27, when he entered the compound alongside government officials, Knesset members, and over 2,000 Israeli settlers, coinciding with Jerusalem Day—the anniversary of Israel's 1967 occupation of East Jerusalem, as marked on the Hebrew calendar. That event drew strong Palestinian and Arab denunciations. Ben Gvir's latest action comes just one day after the UK, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and Norway imposed sanctions on him and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, in response to their repeated incitement to violence against Palestinians. The sanctions include asset freezes and entry bans in the respective countries, further escalating international criticism of the Israeli government's far-right ministers. Notably, Israel began allowing settler incursions into the Al-Aqsa compound in 2003, despite ongoing opposition from the Islamic Waqf, which administers the site. – (Anadolu Agency)
