AMMAN — The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates on Thursday condemned an Israeli attack on the Nasser Medical Complex in southern Gaza as a "flagrant" violation of international law.

 

In a statement, the ministry said the bombing killed and injured several Palestinians, including children and medical personnel, undermining efforts to consolidate stability in the Gaza Strip.

 

Ministry spokesperson Fouad Majali reiterated Jordan’s strong rejection and condemnation of Israeli attacks and the continued targeting of civilians, medical facilities and medical personnel.

 

Majali stressed the need to stop all Israeli attacks and violations and ensure full protection for civilians, medical facilities and humanitarian workers.

 

He called on the international community to assume its legal and moral responsibilities and compel Israel, as the occupying power, to end its violations of international law and international humanitarian law.

 

Majali also urged the international community to ensure the "adequate and sustained" delivery of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip to help alleviate the humanitarian catastrophe in the enclave.
