Israel protests after Jordan minister pictured stepping on flagIsrael’s foreign ministry protested to Jordan on Sunday after a minister was pictured stepping on an image of the Israeli flag while entering a meeting. The image of the flag has been affixed to the floor just inside the entrance to the complex for several years to protest Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories and Jordan’s normalised ties with the Jewish state, union officials say. Israel called Jordan’s ambassador in for clarifications on Sunday, the foreign ministry said.
