Jordan informed Iran and Israel on Saturday that it will “shoot down any target” in its airspace in case the confrontation escalates between the two nations.
Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi made the announcement in an interview with the AlArabiya channel.
He said Jordan “will not be a battlefield for any party.”
Israel anticipates attacks by the Lebanese group, Hezbollah, and Iran, in response to the assassinations of Hezbollah leader Fouad Shukr in Beirut last week, and Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh in the Iranian capital of Tehran on July 31. Iran and Hamas have blamed Tel Aviv for the killings and vowed to retaliate.
Fears have grown about a full-blown war between Israel and Hezbollah amid a months-long exchange of cross-border fire.
The escalation comes against the backdrop of an Israeli onslaught on the Gaza Strip which has killed nearly 39,800 victims since October following an attack by the Palestinian group, Hamas.
