During his visit to Jordan, Albares will visit a Palestinian refugee camp run by The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), providing aid worth 20 million euros (USD 21.9 million) to the UN agency following a meeting with the Commissioner-General of UNRWA, Philippe Lazzarini, in Madrid.

This is the third tour in the region by Albares since January, where he visited Lebanon and Iraq during his first tour, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates during his second tour in hopes of bolstering peace and security in the region. (end)
