Tasnim News Agency

🎞 Iran has closed the Aqaba port in Jordan after 53 years! ▪️ What is the special significance of Aqaba port that was bombed by Iranian missiles? ▪️ Aqaba is the most important maritime port in Jordan. The Aqaba port is directly opposite the Eilat port in the occupied territories. ▪️ Ramon Airport is about 25 kilometers away from this port; this airport is very significant for the Israeli army. ▪️ When it is hit there in Jordan, it means you can strike anywhere in Jordan or the occupied territories whenever you want. ▪️ Since the Yom Kippur War, Aqaba port has not been stopped even for a single day for 53 years. This is very meaningful. 🎤 Alireza Majidi, regional head of the Tasnim war interpretation group War interpretation
