Three Israelis killed at West Bank-Jordan border

A Jordanian citizen has shot dead three Israeli civilians at the Allenby Bridge border crossing in the occupied West Bank. It’s the first attack of its kind on the border with Jordan since October 7 Hamas attacks on southern Israel.

Also known as the King Hussein Bridge, it is the only official crossing point between the West Bank and Jordan.

After the attack, Israel closed both its land crossings with Jordan.
