Jordan has decided to postpone sending its newly appointed ambassador to Israel Abdul Ilah Kurdi “in a protest against the Israeli massacres of the Palestinian people,” reported Petra official news agency. 

An official source said that Kurdi, who was appointed two weeks ago replacing Omar Rifa’i, will not head for Tel Aviv to present his credentials. 

The last week witnessed rallies and demonstrations in Jordan demanding the recall of envoy to Tel Aviv and the expulsion of the Israeli ambassador in Jordan – Albawaba.com
