The auditors' report, annual balance sheet, and profit and loss account were also reviewed and approved by the General Assembly. Darwazah stressed that Royal Jordanian would continue to advance toward achieving its strategic goals despite the ongoing challenges posed by regional and international developments, including the repercussions of the wars on Gaza and Lebanon and broader political and economic fluctuations affecting the aviation sector and travel to and from Jordan. He emphasized that RJ has maintained its pivotal role in ensuring Jordan's connectivity with the outside world, despite the regional crises.
