His Majesty King Abdullah II and Kuwait Emir Sheikh Meshal Al Ahmad Al Jaber Al Sabah, during a phone call on Wednesday, discussed the current developments in the region.

The call addressed the need to stop Iran’s attacks on Jordan, Kuwait, and other countries in the region, and to utilise dialogue and diplomatic channels to resolve conflicts.

His Majesty spoke about his recent tour of Gulf states, emphasising that the security of the Gulf is fundamental to the security and stability of the region and the world.

 The King warned of the danger of the current developments being exploited to restrict worshippers’ access to Al Aqsa Mosque and create new facts on the ground in the West Bank and Gaza.
