Hundreds of people protesting against Israel’s military offensive in Gaza have clashed with riot police in the Jordanian capital Amman. Security forces struggled to contain the crowd trying to break through a cordon outside the Israeli embassy.
The UN Security Council is set to vote on a resolution demanding an immediate humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. The vote comes after Russia and China vetoed a US-sponsored cease-fire resolution on Friday. UN chief Antonio Guterres says people will starve to death if more aid is not allowed to enter Gaza.
Germany’s top diplomat has returned to the Middle East in hopes of bringing about a cease-fire in Gaza. Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock arrived in Cairo, where she’s expected to hold talks with her Egyptian counterpart. She’ll fly on to Israel, in what will be her sixth visit to the country since the Hamas-led terror attacks on October 7th. In the evening, she is expected to visit the Israeli-occupied West Bank and meet Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas.
