King Mohammed VI condemns Iran’s ‘criminal aggression’ against Jordan

King Mohammed VI condemns in the strongest terms the Iranian missile attacks that targeted Jordan, while reaffirming Morocco’s full solidarity with the Hashemite Kingdom amid rising regional tensions.

A message of solidarity to King Abdullah II

According to a statement from the Royal Cabinet, the Moroccan monarch sent a message of solidarity and condemnation to King Abdullah II Ibn Al Hussein following the repeated Iranian strikes on Jordanian territory.

King Mohammed VI says he followed “with deep concern and indignation” the news of these attacks, which he describes as part of “the hostile attitude of Iran” towards Jordan and several Gulf Arab states.

For Moroccans living abroad, this position by King Mohammed VI underlines once again the strategic alignment between Rabat, Amman and Gulf capitals on security issues that often shape travel routes, business ties and family connections in the region.

King Mohammed VI condemns ‘criminal and unjustified aggression’

In his message, King Mohammed VI condemns what he calls a “criminal and unjustified aggression” against a brotherly country.

He stresses that these actions seek “to undermine the stability” of Jordan and “to spread fear and anxiety over the safety and integrity of the Jordanian people”.

The King highlights the seriousness of this escalation in a region already affected by multiple crises, insisting that Jordan’s security is not an isolated issue but part of the broader balance of the Arab Middle East.

Jordan’s security as an integral part of Morocco’s

The message contains a strong political signal: the monarch affirms that “the security of Jordan is an integral part of that of Morocco”.

King Mohammed VI reiterates Morocco’s “absolute solidarity” with the Hashemite Kingdom and its “constant and unconditional support” for all measures taken by the Jordanian authorities to protect the country’s security, stability and citizens.

For Moroccans abroad who travel frequently between Morocco, the Middle East and Europe, this stance means:

• a reinforced alignment with moderate Arab partners;
• a clear political message in favour of stability along key air corridors and transit hubs;
• the continuation of regional security coordination, crucial for the safety of travellers.

What it means for Moroccans abroad

Many Moroccans living overseas have relatives in Jordan or use Amman and other regional hubs as stopovers for pilgrimage, business or studies. They will be watching closely how the situation evolves on the ground.

At this stage, the message from King Mohammed VI remains in the diplomatic sphere. No specific travel restrictions linked to this statement have been announced, and air links in the wider region are still managed according to each country’s security assessments.

By stating that Jordan’s security is tied to Morocco’s, the monarch confirms the traditional pillars of Moroccan foreign policy: backing allied Arab monarchies, supporting regional stability and rejecting actions that endanger civilian populations.

King Mohammed VI concludes by expressing confidence that the Jordanian people, under the leadership of King Abdullah II, will overcome the consequences of these attacks thanks to their determination, unity and composure.

Until there are new developments, Moroccans living abroad are advised to follow updates from Moroccan and Jordanian official channels, including embassies and consulates, for any practical information regarding travel conditions and security in the region.
