Jordan’s Foreign Ministry in a statement on Wednesday said that the country’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi asked Ambassador Rasan Al-Majali to return back to Amman from Israel. “This was in protest to the raging war carried out by Israel in the Gaza Strip leading to the death of several innocent citizens and unprecedented human rights issues in the area.”

It may be recalled that Colombia, Chile and Bolivia have also recalled their ambassadors to Israel.

Slamming Chile and Columbia, Israel’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Lior Haiat said: “Citizens of Chile, Columbia and other Latin American countries are also amongst the victims of the heinous crimes of October 7.
