ecurity forces were seen in footage assaulting the protesters and arresting some as they prevented them from reaching the Israeli embassy.
Security forces also used tear gas to disperse the protesters, resulting in dozens suffering from suffocation.
Protesters chanted slogans such as “All of Jordan with Hamas… With our souls and blood, we sacrifice for you, O Al-Aqsa.”

Solidarity stands with Gaza were also observed among Jordanian students. Hundreds of students from the government-run University of Jordan in Amman and the Hashemite University in Zarqa participated in a student initiative in support of Al-Aqsa Mosque, amidst ongoing incursions by settlers into the holy site.
This came in response to a call by the “Student Forum for Supporting the Resistance” (a student association), expressing rejection of continuous Zionist violations against Al-Aqsa Mosque and urging the free world and the Jordanian state to act to stop these violations and stand against the arrogance of the occupation.
