Jordan on Sunday significantly increased security for the Israeli Embassy in Amman as well as for the residences of senior diplomatic personnel. The move follows the storming of the Israeli Embassy in Cairo on Friday night, which compelled an Egyptian commando force to respond to extricate personnel to safety.
According to an Israel Channel 10 News report, the troop deployment includes the placement of armored vehicles outside the embassy.
Members of the Islamic Brotherhood in Jordan have recently called to oust Israeli diplomatic officials from that country as well as Egypt, as was reported by YWN.
