Jordan condemned a deadly Israeli airstrike that killed at least 87 people in the northern Gaza city of Beit Lahia, Anadolu reports.

Israeli warplanes carried out deadly airstrikes on the city late Saturday, destroying an entire residential block.

In a statement, the Jordanian Foreign Ministry reiterated its absolute rejection of Israel’s “ongoing violations of international humanitarian law and all human values and principles.”

It underlined the need “to ensure the protection of civilians and humanitarian facilities,” calling on the international community and the UN Security Council to take “firm steps to stop the war crimes against Palestinians in Gaza.”
