Jordan has declared war against ISIL, which begs the question, how far can Jordan support such a proposal?
To get a better idea, we spoke to our correspondent in the village of AY where the symbolic funeral is being held for the pilot killed by the insurgents, Mouath al-Kasaesbeh.
Euronews: Away from the anger felt on the streets in Jordan, what are the keys to success for a military operation?
Mohammed SheikhIbrahim: What we’ve been witnessing is solidarity on a huge scale. Emotions are running high after the tragic death of the Jordanian pilot, who has become a hero and a symbol in this war against terrorism and the Jordanians have agreed to unite against this type of organisation, especially since his particularly barbaric death has shocked everyone.
I think this marks a turning point, security sources have already said that Jordan will increase the number of airstrikes against ISIL but we are not yet talking about boots on the ground.
