NICOSIA, April 24, 2026 (WAFA) – Jordan’s Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II cautioned on Friday against distracting world attention from the Palestinian people’s suffering, according to the Crown Prince’s official website.

Crown Prince Al Hussein made his comments during the informal meeting of the European Union and key regional partners in Nicosia, Cyprus.

The Crown Prince stressed that developments in the region must not distract the world’s attention from the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank, warning that the annexation of land poses a grave threat that would destroy any prospects for peace.

He highlighted the gravity of ongoing economic restrictions imposed on Palestinians, as well as violations of the historical and legal status quo at Muslim and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem.

He noted that humanitarian aid is not reaching Gaza, stressing the need to ensure compliance with the United States’ plan to end the conflict in the Strip.
