Jordan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned in the “strongest terms” the Israeli attack that killed and wounded dozens of Palestinians in Beit Lahiya, Al Jazeera reports.

In a statement on X, the ministry described the attack as “a blatant challenge to international law and international humanitarian law, and a continuation of the systematic, brutal targeting of innocent civilians”.

According to witnesses and medical sources, at least 35 people were killed in the attack on Saturday evening. Another attack on a home later in the evening killed at least 10 people, according to the Wafa news agency.
