The Duke of Sussex has called for food and medical aid corridors to be opened in Gaza, saying humanitarian access is urgently needed. Speaking during a visit to Jordan with the Duchess of Sussex and a delegation from the World Health Organisation, he stressed the need for full access so assistance can reach those most in need. He described the situation in Gaza as a 'very real humanitarian catastrophe' that requires sustained international attention.

During the trip, the couple visited a hospital in Jordan treating children recently injured in Gaza, highlighting the importance of medical evacuation routes and continued global support. The duke praised Jordan's 'moral leadership' and described the country as a humanitarian hub providing critical assistance in the region.

The couple also visited the National Centre for Rehabilitation of Addicts in Amman, where they met recovering addicts and staff. The duke encouraged patients to return to their communities and help others, saying 'there's no shame in having an addiction' and urging them to build positive habits. Both he and the duchess left written messages of support for those undergoing treatment.
