Jordanians have once again been out on the streets to express support for the Palestinian people, particularly those facing the US-Israeli genocide in Gaza.

The protest was held in the Jordanian capital, Amman, after Friday prayers. The demonstrators also slammed the torture and abuse of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. They held banners saying the prisoners are the symbol of resilience on the path to victory and Palestinian liberation. The plight of Palestinian prisoners has come under renewed international spotlight after the recent emergence of a video showing Israeli troops gang-raping an inmate. In their weekly pro-Palestinian rallies, the Jordanians have also been calling on their government to cut ties with Israel and the close the regime’s embassy.
