Israel’s West Bank annexation moves raise security alarm in Jordan

Jordan has raised security alarms over recent Israeli measures in the occupied West Bank, which are widely seen as accelerating annexation. Amman fears these actions could lead to a "soft transfer" of Palestinians, a scenario that threatens Jordan's national security. The new Israeli policies include revoking a 1953 Jordanian law that banned property sales to non-Arabs and declassifying land registers, which could facilitate land confiscation and transfers to settlers. Jordanian officials view these steps as a move toward total annexation that strips the Palestinian Authority of its limited self-rule and aims to remove Jordan's influence on the Palestinian cause.
