Jordan's New Ambassador Arrives in Israel

Jordan's new ambassador to Israel, Ghassan Majali, arrived this week and presented his papers to the Israeli Foreign Minister on Tuesday. Majali previously served as Jordan's ambassador to Spain.

Israel has already sent Amir Weissbrod as its own replacement ambassador to Jordan.

Weissbrod replaced Ambassador Einat Schlein who was not welcome back into Jordan after an Israeli embassy guard shot and killed a Jordanian terrorist who attacked him inside the Israeli embassy residence, and in the process of defending himself, he accidentally also killed the Jordanian landlord who was also trying to stop the terror attack.
