King Abdullah II of Jordan calls for an end to the attacks in Jerusalem. He stressed the need to avoid any escalation in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The Jordanian Foreign Ministry said that the restrictions imposed by Israel on the arrival of worshipers during the month of Ramadan, not allowing Muslims to perform religious rituals, “all of this is pushing the situation toward an explosion,” the ministry said. The King of Jordan warned of the repercussions of the possible Israeli attack on the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.
