King Abdullah II of Jordan on Saturday urged an end to the dangerous Israeli escalation in the West Bank.
In a phone call with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the king stressed the need to establish a political path toward a just and comprehensive peace in the occupied Palestinian territory, according to a statement from the Royal Court.
He also underscored the importance of rebuilding Gaza without displacing its residents, ensuring a ceasefire, and intensifying international humanitarian efforts.
Additionally, the two leaders discussed strengthening bilateral ties and expanding cooperation across various sectors.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) warned Wednesday that the West Bank is becoming a "battlefield," with ordinary Palestinians bearing the brunt of the escalation.
According to UNRWA, more than 50 people, including children, have been reportedly killed since the Israeli forces' large-scale operation started in the West Bank weeks ago.
