Amman - Ma'an - The supreme executive committee for the defence of the homeland and opposition of normalization, has called on the Jordanian government to expel the Israeli ambassador from Amman, recall the Jordanian ambassador from Tel Aviv and suspend diplomatic relations with Israel.

In a message from the head of the committee, Hamza Mansur, to the Jordanian Prime Minister, Ma'ruf Al-Bakhit, the call was clear: "We call you to a stance that will be recorded for your government in which you may win victory for the innocent souls that are killed day and night by the Israeli government's butchery and you also defend the reputation of Jordan, which we look forward to improving."
