AMMAN, Oct. 15 (Xinhua) -- Jordanian King Abdullah II on Sunday warned against Israel's attempts to displace Palestinians or force their internal displacement.

In separate phone calls with United Arab Emirates (UAE) President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and King Felipe VI of Spain, the Jordanian king urged joint efforts to galvanize international support to stop the escalation in Gaza, protect civilians, and respect international humanitarian law, according to a statement released by the Royal Hashemite Court.

He also underlined the importance of ensuring medical and relief aid to Gaza while guaranteeing international organizations' operations in the enclave to undertake their humanitarian duties.

The king also stressed the importance of creating a political horizon in order to guarantee the prospects for just and comprehensive peace based on the two-state solution and prevent further cycles of violence and war in the region.
