What happened
Syria and Jordan agreed to establish a joint security committee to investigate military strikes and strengthen security cooperation. This came after a diplomatic dispute arose from Jordanian air strikes in Southern Syria, which Syrian authorities claimed killed seven civilians. The two countries also recently reopened their border crossing after Jordanian border guards clashed with armed men attempting to enter from Syria.
