AMMAN — Downtown shopkeepers closed their stores for an hour on Monday in a show of solidarity after the murder of air force pilot Muath Kasasbeh by the so-called Islamic State.
The stores were shut between 11:30am and 12:30pm
Since IS released a video last week purportedly showing the pilot being burned alive, many activities have been held around the Kingdom to express solidarity with the pilot and show support for his family and the country’s fight against terror.
