The text reads, “Human tide in Jordan. A great march in the heart of Amman in support of Al-Aqsa, in solidarity with Gaza, and in support of the Palestinian Resistance.”
On Saturday, the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) launched a massive surprise attack on Israeli towns adjacent to the Gaza Strip, prompting Israel to launch retaliatory strikes on Gaza.
At least 830 people have been killed and 4,250 others wounded in Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, according to an update issued by the Palestinian Health Ministry on Tuesday, while at least 1,008 have been killed in Israel in the Hamas attacks, as reported Israel’s state-owned Kan TV news.
During a press conference held on Tuesday morning, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the president of Türkiye, expressed his deep concern about the presence of a U.S. carrier in the Middle East.
Why is the American aircraft carrier coming to Israel? So that? What will they do? “Will they attack Gaza with their warplanes and commit a massacre?” he asked.
