Jordanian Parliament speaker Ahmed Safadi has urged the Legal Committee to review Amman's agreements with the Israeli occupation. The parliament unanimously approved this call.

Safadi, during Monday's session, suggested filing a complaint with the International Criminal Court regarding "Israel's" war crimes in Gaza. He also called for Arab and Islamic parliaments to follow suit.

Safadi emphasized the House's commitment to holding regular sessions and prioritizing Gaza. He highlighted the importance of upholding state institutions, stating it strengthens both Jordan and Palestine.

He announced plans to coordinate with the government and armed forces to increase the number of field hospitals in Gaza and the West Bank.

Safadi, moreover, encouraged the Palestinian Committee to hold a permanent session for prompt consideration of efforts to support the people in Gaza and the West Bank.

Safadi criticized those who questioned the resistance's decisions, asserting their right to make choices without foreign interference.

Recent protests in Jordan demanded the severance of ties with the Israeli occupation, as well as supporting the resistance and urging the Arab summit to draw a line in the sand and end the war on Gaza.

This comes less than a week after Jordanian Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi affirmed that Amman was opposed to any plan or idea of external governance of Gaza in the future. 

As quoted by Petra News Agency, Safadi said, "Jordan rejects any talk of post-war Gaza administration through Arab or non-Arab forces."

He added that peace and a political solution are required through acknowledging Palestinian rights and an independent state of Palestine.

This follows White House Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby's comments that although Palestinians should determine Gaza's future, the administration of the region after the end of the war has not been determined yet - hinting at a potential "international" involvement.

Upon asking Kirby whether US forces would be sent to "stabilize the situation" in Gaza, he replied, "There's no plans or intentions to put US military troops on the ground in Gaza, now or in the future," adding, "But we are… talking to our partners about what post-conflict Gaza should look like."
