According to a statement by the Jordanian Foreign Ministry, 'The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates summoned the chargé d'affaires of the Islamic Republic of Iran's embassy in Amman and delivered a strongly worded protest message against the continued brutal and unjustified Iranian attacks targeting the Kingdom's territories, and the provocative inflammatory statements issued by Iranian official bodies regarding the Kingdom.'

The official spokesperson for the Ministry, Ambassador Fuad Al-Majali, confirmed that 'the Ministry requested the chargé d'affaires to convey a clear message to his country to immediately stop the attacks on the Kingdom, and that Jordan's security and the safety of its citizens are a red line that cannot be crossed, as well as the need to stop the unacceptable inflammatory statements.'

He also affirmed 'Jordan's condemnation of the brutal Iranian attacks targeting the sisterly countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), and Jordan's absolute solidarity and standing with them in all steps they take to protect their sovereignty, security, and the safety of their citizens and residents.'
