Last update: 2 hours ago

Humanitarian Aid: Jordan sent its 9th humanitarian convoy to Lebanon—20 trucks organised by the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organisation with the Armed Forces, Foreign Ministry, WFP and UNRWA—aimed at urgent needs and public health support. Economy & Trade: National exports rose 7.3% in the first four months of 2026 to JD2.956bn, while the trade deficit narrowed 13.4% to JD2.694bn, as re-exports and key sectors like fertilisers and pharmaceuticals grew. Finance & Currency: Exchange companies reported strong demand for the dinar, linked to export momentum and remittances; foreign reserves reached $27.2bn by end of May. Energy Transition: Renewable energy systems connected to the JEPCO grid topped 40,329 by end-2025, with installed capacity above 716MW. Jobs & Green Finance: JLGC launched “Guarantee for Employment” (KfW-funded) and “Green Finance Guarantee” to expand SME lending for jobs and energy/environment projects. Sports & Public Safety: Jordan mourned 15-year-old Zaid Al-Damasi, who died in a crowd crush during a World Cup screening; the national team observed a minute of silence as preparations continue for Argentina. Regional Security/Drugs: Jordan seized about 150,000 Captagon pills at the Jaber border in a joint operation with Syria. Energy Security: Jordan announced proven uranium reserves of around 42,000 tons, said to cover nuclear needs for up to 80 years.
