New Delhi: The war between Israel and Iran has started. The world is now afraid that Israel may retaliate against the Iranian attack at any time and then this entire area will turn into a war zone. Iran attacked Israel with ballistic missiles and drones on Sunday. However, Israel managed to destroy the missiles and thus foiled the Iranian attack. Meanwhile, the most shocking thing about Iran’s attack on Israel was that despite being a Muslim country, why did Jordan leave Iran and support its enemy country Israel?
In fact, taking an unexpected step, Iran attacked Israel early on Sunday and fired 170 drones, more than 120 ballistic missiles and 30 cruise missiles at it. This attack by Iran has pushed West Asia closer to a regional war. The Israeli military says Iran fired several drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, most of which were destroyed outside Israel’s borders. Iran had vowed revenge after two Iranian generals were killed in an air strike on the Iranian Consulate in Syria on April 1. Iran had accused Israel of being behind this attack.
America-Jordan also shot down Iranian drone
When Iran attacked Israel with drones, ballistic and cruise missiles, not only America but Jordan also shot down dozens of Iranian drones and missiles. According to America, more than 70 drones and three ballistic missiles were intercepted by US Navy ships and military aircraft. Now the question arises that America would support Israel, it was a natural thing, but being a Muslim country, why did Jordan support Israel and why did it destroy Iran’s missiles? After all, why did Jordan, which criticized Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu in Gaza, get involved in the Israel-Iran war?
Now there will be a great battle! Iran will get a befitting reply…Netanyahu will take swift action, Israel will take this big step
Jordan gave clarification
Now Jordan has given its official statement on this and has defended the incident of destroying Iranian missiles. Jordan said it intercepted the Iranian drone in self-defense, not to help Israel. The response of Jordan’s King Abdullah II, who supported Palestine, is seen as a balancing act by Jordan, which does not want to get caught up in Israel’s war against Iran’s ally Hamas. Let us tell you that this is the first time that Iran has directly attacked Israel after decades of hostility that began after the country’s 1979 Islamic Revolution. Countries like America, United Nations, France, Britain etc. have condemned Iran’s attack on Israel.
How are the relations between Jordan and Israel?
If we talk about the relations between Jordan and Israel, both have been enemy countries. Although Jordan and Israel signed a peace treaty in 1984, before that both the countries had fought four wars between 1948 and 1973. Not only this, Jordan had condemned Israel in the Hamas-Israel war. At the same time, Israel has welcomed Jordan’s participation in the Israel-Iran issue, while Palestine has condemned its role. Jordan’s population consists mostly of Palestinians. About 3 million Palestinians live in Jordan.
