Amman, July 19 (Petra) - Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi and his Saudi counterpart, Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, held a phone call on Sunday to discuss regional escalations and coordinate efforts to defuse them.

The ministers criticized recent Iranian attacks targeting Jordan and Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member states, pledging "absolute solidarity" in countering these security threats.

They stressed the need to halt escalations and fully implement the ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran.

They also called for an immediate resumption of negotiations to secure a comprehensive resolution that addresses all root causes of regional tension and guarantees freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
