AMMAN: Jordan’s King Abdullah II warned against a continuation of the provocative Israeli violations in Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa mosque, and the repeated and illegal attempts to displace residents in a number of east Jerusalem neighborhoods, especially Sheikh Jarrah, which led to the recent escalation, state news agency Petra reported.
Speaking during a meeting with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Wednesday, the king stressed the “necessity of preserving the existing historical and legal status of Jerusalem and its sanctities and away from prejudice,” adding that his country “will continue to make all efforts to protect Islamic and Christian holy sites in the holy city,” of which the Hashemite kingdom hold guardianship over.
