The international ‌football friendly between Australia and Jordan next week has been moved to ⁠Doha, Football ⁠Australia (FA) said on Friday, after security concerns were raised over playing the fixture in Amman. Late last month, Jordan launched air strikes in Syria in “retaliation” for the church attack that killed nine people and injured 40. Attacks ⁠like this are rare in the country, a relatively stable United States ally, but a security officer was killed and another wounded in a stabbing attack in Amman ‌this month. Australia, who face Qatar in ⁠Doha later on Friday, had been set to travel to Jordan for Tuesday’s game.
