Jobs & Economy: Jordan’s unemployment fell to 16.1% in Q1 2026, while the Prime Minister ordered expanded incentives for the al-Rawdah Industrial Zone and pushed to speed up the Aqaba–Ma’an Dry Port master plan. Industrial Push: Hassan inaugurated six Jinsheng factories in Karak’s Qatrana area, aiming to create 700 jobs and move the complex toward development-zone status. Tourism & Travel: Low-cost flights to Jordan are set to resume July 1, expected to lift European tourist arrivals after regional disruptions. Public Health: Tobacco use among Jordanians aged 15+ tops 50%, with low-income smokers hit hardest.
