Jordan's Strategic Role in Thwarting Iranian Attacks

Watan-Israeli newspapers published analyses and reports by Israeli analysts and writers who praised the role of the Jordanian authorities in thwarting an Iranian attack on the occupation and spoke of what they described as “Israeli success in engineering regional defense against Iranian attacks.”

Yedioth Ahronoth quoted Israeli journalist Samdar Perry as saying that while the Jordanian king disappeared coinciding with the Iranian attack without commenting on what happened, he was working behind the scenes to repel the attack to protect Israel.

Perry mentioned that the Jordanian monarch had always assured Israelis that he was committed to protecting their security and preventing the passage of aircraft in Jordanian airspace, and he would not allow Iran to operate in Jordanian territories as it does in Lebanon, Iraq, and Syria, according to the Hebrew newspaper’s claims.

Jordanian cooperation shifts the balance!

Yedioth Ahronoth claimed that Jordan cooperated closely with the occupation on the night of the attack, allowing it to freely fly its aircraft in the country’s skies to attack Iranian planes.

Israeli praise and admiration for Jordan reached the point of speaking of it as “if the cooperation between King Hussein and Yitzhak Rabin is back to the days of Abdullah II and Benjamin Netanyahu,” according to journalist Samdar Perry.

Israeli warplanes utilized advanced electronic equipment and ambushed Iranian drones in Jordanian airspace.

At the same time, Jordanian aircraft took off from their bases to fire at Iranian drones that made their way to Israeli occupied areas.

According to the Israeli journalist’s claims, most of the attacks did not occur within the occupied territories.

A big surprise in Jordan’s stance towards Israel

Yedioth Ahronoth mentioned that it is certain that Jordan’s stance has become clear in favor of Israel against Iran, which it considered “a big surprise in any diplomatic dictionary,” according to its claims.

However, despite this surprise, it is difficult to believe that there will be a significant expected change in the relationship between the Jordanian royal palace and the office of the Israeli occupation’s prime minister.

Perry explained that the gaps between Jordan and Israel are still significant, and the relations are tense.

On the other hand, the website “Waynet” quoted military analyst Ron Ben-Yishai as saying, “The Iranian attack failed with the help of the Americans, the British, and the French, and apparently the Jordanians as well.”

Pre-emptive monitoring belt

Ben-Yishai continued that the Jordanian Air Force formed, with foreign forces, a pre-emptive monitoring belt for hundreds of ballistic missiles, drones, and cruise missiles launched by Iran.

The occupation’s air defense system, as a result, was able to focus its efforts on intercepting them before they reached Israeli territory.

According to the military analyst’s claims, the Jordanians fought effectively by sharing precise pre-planned work alongside Israel.

It is worth noting that Jordan did not deny “dealing with some aerial bodies that entered the country’s airspace on Saturday night and confronting them to prevent endangering the safety of our citizens and inhabited areas,” according to an official Jordanian statement.

Jordan had announced the closure of its airspace and closed Amman Airport during the exact hours when flights to Israel were suspended.
