On September 14, an ammonia gas leak injured eleven people at an industrial complex in Aqaba, Jordan. The incident occurred during maintenance work on old equipment for a Japanese company in the southern part of Aqaba, away from residential areas. Authorities evacuated the area as a precaution but later reported that the leak had been contained and no significant risks remained after necessary inspections were completed. Commissioner Nidal Al-Ouran confirmed that injuries ranged from minor to moderate and stated workers would be allowed back on-site once all risks were verified as eliminated by relevant agencies.
