Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan will hold talks on Thursday with Jordanian officials on the war in Gaza, as the two countries take a tough line against the Israeli offensive.

Ties between Turkey and Jordan have been cool for the last two decades, with differences over regional issues and unease in Amman over Ankara’s support for the Muslim Brotherhood.
