The Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall have touched down to begin their royal visit to Jordan and Egypt.

They were welcomed by the Royal Jordanian Guard, before being greeted by Britain’s Ambassador to Jordan and a team of defence staff.

Later on Tuesday they will visit Al Husseiniya Palace for a formal welcome with His Majesty King Abdullah II and Her Majesty Queen Rania, who has recently been part of Prince William’s Earthshot Prize panel.

The King, Queen, future King and Duchess will walk through the Palace for a guard of honour in the inner courtyard, before a private meeting.
