Massive marches took place Friday in the governorates of the Kingdom on the twenty-second Friday, condemning the ongoing Israeli Occupation aggression on the Gaza Strip since October 7.

Thousands of Jordanians participated in marches that started from in front of the Al-Husseini Mosque in Amman, as well as marches and rallies in the governorates of Irbid, Aqaba, Karak, Tafilah, and Madaba, along with many cities and villages across Jordan.

Participants raised slogans condemning the aggression on the Gaza Strip and the genocidal war.

In the marches and rallies, participants called for an end to the aggression on the Gaza Strip and for holding the Israeli Occupation accountable for its crimes.

The Israeli occupation's aggression on the Gaza Strip continues into its 154th day, exacerbating the suffering of Gazans due to malnutrition resulting from food and infant milk shortages. Almost daily, deaths occur due to dehydration and malnutrition, especially among infants.

The toll of the aggression has risen to 30,878 martyrs and 72,402 injuries since October 7, according to a preliminary tally from the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

The Palestinian Health Ministry reiterated that there are still victims under the rubble and on the streets, with the occupation preventing ambulance and civil defense crews from reaching them.
