Iran Press/Middle East: The residents of Karak after Friday Prayers took to the streets and called for a mass demonstration against 'displays of normalization of relations with the Zionists regime.'
The rage began after the mayor, Ibrahim Karaki helped a group of Israelis tourists to enter a historical site, Iran Press reported.
Angry protesters in the Friday rally set the flag of the Zionist regime on fire.
Protesters also called for the protection of Al-Aqsa mosque, a holy Muslim site formally under Jordanian custodianship, the Associated Press reported.
The people of Jordan also protested against Israel's recent attack on Gaza and also declared their protest against the Jordanian government’s 1994 peace treaty with Israel.
On 30 March, thousands of Jordanians protested against the US decision to recognize Zionist sovereignty over the occupied Golan Heights, which legally belongs to Syria.
Tens of thousands of demonstrators poured through the streets of Jordan’s capital, Amman, holding anti-Israel signs and chanting slogans in support of Palestinian resistance movement and against Israeli occupation of East al-Quds.
Jordan is one of only two Arab states that has a peace treaty with Israel and the two countries have a long history of close security ties.
But the peace treaty with Israel is unpopular and pro-Palestinian sentiment is widespread in Jordan.
