Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has expressed his rejection of the forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza during a meeting with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Jordan. Abbas warned that such displacement would constitute a "second Nakba" and called for the immediate establishment of humanitarian corridors to prevent a humanitarian disaster. Blinken's diplomatic trip aims to negotiate the release of American captives held by Hamas and the safe exit of US citizens in Gaza, while also seeking to avoid a regional escalation of the conflict. Jordan's King Abdullah II also called for the opening of humanitarian corridors and the protection of civilians in Gaza.
