Starting from March 20, Amman's more than 6,000 street cleaners will trade in their orange jumpsuits for turquoise uniforms, city authorities said in a statement. The decision was taken at the request of city residents and the brother of Maaz al-Kassasbeh, the deceased pilot, because "the colour orange is **w associated with the terrorist practices of Daesh," the statement said, using an Arabic acronym for IS. IS, which has taken control of large parts of Iraq and Syria, has dressed hostages including Western journalists and aid workers, as well as Egyptian Coptic Christians, in orange jumpsuits before killing them in recorded executions.
