KHAN YOUNIS, Gaza Strip — Jordan’s foreign minister told state-run television that Jordan has canceled the four-way summit scheduled for Wednesday with U.S. President Joe Biden and other leaders.
Ayman Safadi told al-Mamlaka TV that the war between Israel and Hammas was “pushing the region to the brink.”
He said the summit would be postponed.
After visiting Israel Wednesday, Biden had planned to travel to Amman for the summit.
The White House said Biden had hoped to use the summit to discuss the bloody Oct. 7 Hamas militant attack on Israel with America’s Arab allies and the Palestinian Authority, which exercises limited autonomy in parts of the occupied West Bank.
