AdvertisementAdvertisement"There will be no refugees in Jordan and no refugees in Egypt," said Jordanian King Abdullah II this week, declaring it a "red line" that would not be crossed. It is also the country that hosts the largest number of Palestinian refugees, according to Amnesty International. Not being seen as complicit in Palestinian displacement"Palestinians themselves, of course, are very wary about fleeing to Egypt, because 70% of the population of Gaza are refugees," said Doyle. Many of the Palestinians who live in Jordan, Egypt, and elsewhere in the region first arrived there after being displaced in 1948, or following the Six-Day War in 1967.
