Jordan helps to shoot Iranian drones
In addition to NATO countries such as the USA, Great Britain and France, Jordan took part in shooting Iranian drones in addition to NATO countries on Sunday night. According to media reports, Jordan successfully intercepted dozens of the drones near the Iraqi-Syrian border, which may have had Jerusalem. The Jordan government confirmed this incident on Sunday morning and announced that the shot objects had penetrated into the Jordanian airspace, but without violating people or causing greater damage to buildings.Despite the incident, Iran warned Jordan of a interference into conflict and threatened retribution. Due to the security concerns, Jordan closed his airspace late on Saturday evening and only opened it again after ten hours on Sunday morning. During the Iranian attack on Israel, the rocket residues shot down reported in the Jordanian area.
The procedure of Jordan is particularly emphasized, since it has positioned itself as an Arab country not only against Iran, but also against direct Arab neighboring countries such as Syria. The "Jerusalem Post" praised this measure as a sign of "transformation from the enemy to ally" and pointed out that Jordan had been a military opponent before the peace treaty with Israel in 1995.
