Jordan's airspace has been breached by several rockets on Sunday evening following a renewed military escalation in the region, according to its Minister of Government Communication and government spokesperson Mohammad Momani.
In a post on social media platform X, carried by Jordan News Agency (Petra), Momani stated that the Public Security Directorate (PSD) subsequently activated air raid sirens across the country.
Momani added that the directorate will continuously update citizens and residents with necessary safety guidelines and information.
He confirmed that the Jordan Armed Forces are closely monitoring regional developments, fulfilling their operational duties, and deploying all available capabilities to protect the country and its infrastructure.
The government spokesperson also reiterated Jordan's strict warning against any attempts to violate the kingdom's airspace by any party, emphasising that it will "not allow its territory or skies to be turned into a battlefield for anyone".
