MIDDLE EAST (VINnews) – On Tuesday, the Kingdom of Jordan refused entry to 150 Charedim. The official reason given by the government was that the visitors engaged in a “riot”.
The Israeli men were seeking to daven at the kever of Aharon HaKohen, who is buried in what is now Jordan, on his yahrtzeit.
As reported on Arutz Sheva, the Kingdom alleged that the Charedim rioted over the Jordanians’ refusal to allow them to bring food along.
The Airports Authority stated: “A group of Charedim (about 150) was refused entry to Jordan due to a riot at the Jordanian terminal over the refusal of the Jordanians to allow them to bring food. Despite the crossing staff’s warning, they decided to take the food items with them. The Rabin Crossing is prepared to receive them and for a later closure if necessary.”
