1:00Now PlayingIn Jordan, a newly opened shawarma restaurant named "October 7" has ignited controversy due to its association with the date of Hamas's deadly attack in southern Israel, which resulted in the death of 1,200 Israelis and the taking of hundreds of hostages. The establishment, situated in the Southern Mazar district, gained attention after Dima Tahboub, a former Jordanian parliament member and member of the conservative Islamist organization, the Muslim Brotherhood, shared a promotional video. Criticism escalated when Yair Lapid, Israel's Opposition Leader, denounced the naming as a "disgraceful glorification" of the attack, stating, “The incitement and hatred against Israel breeds the terrorism and extremism which led to the brutal massacre of October 7th,” and called for Jordanian condemnation. Amid backlash, the restaurant's owner claimed the name was changed to "October," attributing it to a personal celebration unrelated to political events, a claim met with skepticism due to previous social media interactions suggesting the name was deliberately chosen to commemorate the Hamas attacks. This controversy has surfaced amidst a period of heightened tension between Israel and Jordan, further straining their diplomatic relations.
