MIDEAST-ISRAEL-JORDAN-LAND LEASE-END

People visit the "Island of Peace" in an area known as "Naharayim" in Hebrew and "Baquora" in Arabic, on the border of Jordan and Israel on Nov. 9, 2019. King Abdullah II of Jordan on Nov. 10 announced the official termination of an agreement which leases part of Jordan's land to Israel. In the 1994 peace treaty between Israel and Jordan, Jordan agreed to let Israel lease the two areas of Baqoura and Ghumar for 25 years but has the right not to renew the land lease.
