A tragic accident has claimed the lives of two Jordanian soldiers and injured two others as an aid convoy headed towards Gaza met with a mishap.
According to a military source, the incident occurred on Sunday when three military trucks overturned on the Dead Sea road.
The convoy was transporting humanitarian and relief aid to the Gaza Strip. The trucks veered off course, leading to the fatal accident.
The source confirmed that a sergeant and a soldier, both part of the Royal Supply and Transport Directorate, lost their lives in the incident. Additionally, two other soldiers sustained moderate injuries.
The Jordanian Armed Forces reiterated their commitment to continue sending humanitarian aid to support the people of Gaza during these challenging times.
The Gaza Strip has been enduring severe hardships due to ongoing conflicts and blockades, leading to significant humanitarian needs.
Jordan, along with other nations and international organizations, has been actively involved in sending aid to alleviate the suffering of the Gazan people.
The aid convoys are a critical lifeline, providing essential supplies such as food, medical aid, and other necessities.
Despite the risks, Jordan remains steadfast in its support, highlighting the strong ties and solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza.
This incident underscores the dangerous conditions and the sacrifices made by those involved in delivering humanitarian assistance to conflict zones.
The loss of these soldiers is a stark reminder of the perils faced by military and aid workers alike in their mission to provide relief to those in need.
