Harry and Meghan Begin WHO-Backed Jordan Visit Focused on Conflict Health Response

The two-day trip spotlights health programs the couple fund, including evacuations of Gaza patients to Jordan.

Overview

  • They met WHO chief Dr Tedros at the organization’s Amman office and joined a roundtable with senior figures from UNRWA, UNHCR, the World Food Programme, UNICEF and diplomatic representatives.
  • The itinerary includes the Questscope youth centre at the Za’atari refugee camp and Amman’s Specialty Hospital, where they met patients evacuated from Gaza and spoke with clinicians.
  • They are scheduled to visit World Central Kitchen’s regional hub in Amman, which coordinates food relief operations for Gaza.
  • The couple are highlighting projects they supported to move injured children from Gaza to Jordan, alongside a reported $500,000 donation directed to prosthetics and support for children in Gaza and Ukraine.
  • The visit coincides with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor remaining under investigation after his Feb. 19 arrest, with Harry offering no public comment and UK media reporting a renewed Home Office threat assessment of his protection.
