Jordan says Israeli settlers attacked Gaza-bound aid convoy

Jordan said Israeli settlers attacked a Gaza-bound aid convoy on Wednesday in the second such incident in days, accusing Israel of failing to act firmly to prevent repeated assaults.

The convoy, carrying 30 trucks of humanitarian aid, was delayed in its arrival in a violation of signed agreements, Jordanian government spokesman Mohammad al-Momani told Reuters.

"This requires a serious Israeli intervention and no leniency in dealing with those who obstruct these convoys," Momani said.
