The move was seen as part of a broader campaign that aims to restrain political parties and activists in Jordan amid serious regional geopolitical developments.

Since Israel started its genocidal aggression on Gaza, Jordanian authorities have cracked down on pro-Palestinian activists, protesters, and even journalists.

Although Israel has a policy of confiscating the bodies of individuals who carry out attacks against its forces, it returned Al-Jazi’s body to maintain security relations with the Jordanian government amid outrage of the Jordanian people.

Though Israel has been fixated on preventing alleged weapons infiltration from Iran to Palestinian resistance groups in the West Bank through its borders with Jordan, the shooting showcased that the security measures of the Zionist entity are breachable

Sit-ins and protests against the US administration’s support to Israel have intensified within the United States and globally, particularly during Netanyahu’s current visit to Washington DC

The protests in Morocco and Jordan are significant as both these countries have diplomatic ties with Israel. Protesters demanded the severing of these ties and an end to Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza

The deal between the two countries has been widely denounced in Jordan over the years with trade unions, activists and politicians deeming it to be a “betrayal of the Palestinian people”
