The Jordan Media Commission (JMC) has blocked a number of websites for violating the licensing terms, contrary to the provisions of the Press and Publication Law No. 8 of 1998 and its amendments.

A statement issued by the JMC on Monday said that the decision came as part of the commission’s efforts to implement the relevant legislations in its field of work.

The commission carried out inspection visits to several publishing and printing houses, to ensure their compliance with the licensing requirements and legislation regulating their work.
