Aballi has been posting content, including videos and posts, condemning the Israeli siege and ongoing genocide in Gaza since the start of the assault in October 2023. Both Jordanians and Palestinians in the country have shown solidarity with the Palestinian cause and against the ongoing genocide through social media posts, protests, and various forms of activism. Last year, Amnesty International urged Jordan to end its repression of pro-Gaza protests and release people detained for exercising their rights to free speech. According to Human Rights Watch, Jordanian authorities have arrested and harassed scores of Jordanians who participated in pro-Palestine protests across the country or engaged in online advocacy since October 2023.
