Jordan’s foreign minister showing the way..
Jordan's Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi has called for all sides to work together to "stop a catastrophe that will haunt the region for generations".
He made the call during his joint news conference in Amman with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry.
He said: "I think we need to remind each other of our humanity. I think we need to accept that killing more people will not bring [back] those who are lost on both sides, as tragic as the loss is.
"I think we need to all emphasise that everything we can do to save one more life is imperative upon all of us."
He added: "As human beings, we just cannot accept to see all that killing unfolding, to see all that reduction of life...How can we justify to anybody that killing 9,000 people, killing 3,700 children, destroying 150,000 houses, destroying hospitals - how can we justify that this is self-defence?"
Safadi warned that the war "is going to push us all again into the abyss of hatred and dehumanisation that will make killing even more acceptable. That needs to stop.
