Jordan’s King Abdullah II condemned Israeli attacks on Syrian territory during a meeting with Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad Al-Shaibani in Aqaba. The meeting took place as Israeli forces conducted a raid in the Daraa countryside, resulting in civilian casualties. The king reaffirmed Jordan’s support for Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. Both leaders emphasized the need for closer coordination to ease regional tensions.
The Israeli military claimed responsibility for the raid in the western Daraa countryside, where a disabled man was killed. State media reported the incident as part of operations against militant groups. The attack has raised concerns among regional allies, including Jordan, which has been a key mediator in Syria’s conflict.
The conflict in Syria has seen repeated cross-border military actions, with Israel targeting groups it accuses of supporting Hezbollah. Jordan has consistently called for de-escalation and diplomatic solutions. The recent meeting between the two leaders highlights the ongoing diplomatic efforts to stabilize the region amid continued violence. The situation remains volatile, with no immediate resolution in sight.
