The Jordanian Armed Forces (JAF) announced the arrival of 81 wounded and ill Palestinian children from the Gaza Strip to receive specialized medical treatment in the kingdom. The group, which included 108 accompanying family members, entered via the Allenby border crossing between the occupied West Bank and Jordan. This arrival marks the 26th cohort of children evacuated for treatment since the onset of the genocide in October 2023.

The evacuation is a primary component of the "Jordanian Medical Corridor" initiative, a humanitarian program established in February 2025. The project aims to provide a lifeline for approximately 2,000 Palestinian children whose medical needs cannot be met within the Gaza Strip due to the severe destruction of healthcare infrastructure and 'israel's' ongoing blockade.

The JAF statement emphasized that the children will be transferred to various hospitals across the kingdom to address a range of injuries and chronic illnesses.
