According to a statement by the Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates summoned the charge d'affaires of the Islamic Republic of Iran's embassy in Amman and conveyed to him 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 spokesman for the ministry, Ambassador Fouad Al-Majali, confirmed that 'The ministry requested the charge d'affaires to convey a clear message to his country to immediately cease the attacks on the Kingdom, and that the security of Jordan and the safety of its citizens represent 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 Gulf Cooperation Council states, and Jordan's absolute solidarity and standing with them in all the steps they take to protect their sovereignty, security, and the safety of their citizens and residents.'
