JAKARTA - King Abdullah II told President Mahmoud Abbas, Jordan will always be with and support Palestine, when the two meet in Amman Sunday, along with increased information in Jerusalem and the West Bank.
The king met with President Abbas and Palestinian religious figures in charge of the holy places in Jerusalem, at a palace on the outskirts of Amman City, Jordan's official news agency said.
"You will win against all the challenges that lie ahead of you," the king said in a statement.
On Saturday, Israeli troops in the West Bank shot dead a Palestinian man, after what they said was a collision attack that injured three soldiers.
Palestinians in the West Bank and occupied East Jerusalem carried out a strike on Sunday, in protest against the killings.
Earlier, another man was shot dead by Israeli police near the Al Aqsa compound in East Jerusalem on Friday night.
It is known that Jordan and Israel signed a peace agreement in 1994.
But Jordanian officials fear that increasing Israeli pressure on Palestine could lead to a wave of refugees to Jordan, after the waves of refugees in the 1940s and 1967s.
This could disrupt social balance in the kingdom, where the tribes support security forces and bureaucracy.
Referring to an Israeli minister's statement last month, the king "asked the international community to counter the recent statements of exclusiveism and racism made by some Israeli officials".
"It is our duty and the duty of every Muslim to prevent Israel's escalation," said King Abdullah.
The meeting was attended by Jerusalem mufi Mohammad Hussein, and Mohammad Al Khatib, head of the Jerusalem waqf agency, known as the waqf and members of the city's Christian priest.
