Qudah stressed the Ministry's commitment to
closely monitoring the situation through its team at the
Jordanian Embassy in Cairo, which is stationed around the clock on the Egyptian side of the Rafah
Crossing.
The injured citizen is currently receiving
critical medical care at the
Indonesian hospital in Gaza, and the evacuation
plan involves transporting him from Gaza to Egypt through the
Rafah Crossing,
followed by swift transportation to the Kingdom for comprehensive treatment,
the Jordan News Agency, Petra reported.
In a broader context, Qudah disclosed that 600
Jordanian residents in Gaza, registered with the ministry, are being accounted
for. Out of these, 209 have already been successfully evacuated to Cairo
through the Rafah Crossing. Furthermore, 54 individuals were transported to the
Kingdom via a dedicated evacuation plane from the
Royal Jordanian Air Force.
This plane, dispatched by the Kingdom last week to El-Arish Airport in Egypt,
carried essential humanitarian aid for the Palestinian population in Gaza.
