Jordan has urged for a just, transparent, and immediate investigation into the killing of Al-Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh to hold perpetrators accountable.
Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi on Wednesday described the killing as a “heinous crime and a flagrant attack on press freedom” during a phone call with his Palestinian counterpart Riyad al-Maliki, according to a statement by the Jordanian Foreign Ministry.
