Jordan escalates relief efforts as Gaza crisis eases
• Jordan ready to ramp up humanitarian aid flow to Gaza
• Over 25,000 tons of supplies and 3,000 trucks prepared for immediate delivery
Jordan has announced its full readiness to increase the flow of humanitarian aid by land to Gaza, as the campaign of destruction and starvation by ‘Israel’ begins to recede.
The kingdom emphasized that thousands of tons of aid are ready to be dispatched immediately, reinforcing its role as a “humanitarian safety valve” for the Palestinian people.
This announcement is not the start of aid efforts, but a continuation and escalation of a two-year-long relief operation. Since the beginning of the aggression, the Jordanian Armed Forces, the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization, and international partners have worked tirelessly to deliver medical and humanitarian assistance to over two million civilians, overcoming obstacles by land, air, and on-the-ground projects including field hospitals, bakeries, and water initiatives.
Massive aid stockpiles and logistical readiness
Dr. Hussein Al-Shibli, Secretary-General of the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization, stated that the organization’s warehouses are fully stocked with over 25,000 tons of essential food and medical supplies. Additionally, 3,000 trucks are ready to deliver aid across Gaza’s cities, aiming to immediately alleviate civilian suffering.
Under royal directives, systematic plans have been implemented to coordinate aid distribution with the Jordanian Armed Forces and local organizations in Gaza, ensuring rapid delivery to all areas.
Over the past two years, Jordan’s humanitarian effort included:
- 201 land convoys (8,664 trucks)
- 53 aid flights
- 564 air drops
This extensive and continuous effort underscores Jordan’s strategic humanitarian role in supporting the Palestinian population during prolonged crises.
