Last update: 7 hours ago

Middle East Diplomacy: Jordan welcomed a US-Iran agreement to end military operations and move to talks, with the Foreign Ministry calling it a step toward restoring regional security and freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. Regional Security: Jordan said it intercepted 20 Iranian missiles over the Azraq area, while the wider crisis has also seen Iran announce a full closure of the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears for global oil markets. Health & Services: Prime Minister Jaafar Hassan ordered full use of field hospitals set up during COVID-19, highlighting the re-operation of the Amman Field Hospital next to Prince Hamzah Hospital to expand emergency, ICU and dialysis capacity. Energy & Industry: The Cabinet approved extending the Risha gas field concession until 2061 and set targets to boost production, while the Jordan Chamber of Industry warned imports reached JOD 9 billion in 2025 where local alternatives are missing. Infrastructure & Development: Work has started on Amra City’s Al Hussein bin Abdullah II International Stadium, with preliminary excavation and site prep under way ahead of construction in 2027. Aqaba Energy Logistics: ADC began detailed designs for a new JD45 million oil derivatives pier in Aqaba, aiming to ease pressure on the current facility. Local Economy & Governance: A PM circular directs ministries to cut 2027 operating costs by 15% as budget planning ramps up.
