Two individuals lost their lives at the Jordan-Israel border due to gunfire, according to statements from Israeli medical personnel.
The Allenby Crossing, a crucial border point for trade between Jordan and Israel, was the scene of a tragic incident this week. According to reports, an assailant was shot dead by security forces in a shooting that occurred at the Israel news crossing.
Israeli medics have confirmed that the shooting left two people dead, including the assailant. The incident has caused the crossing to be shut for two days while investigations are carried out.
The shooting at Allenby Crossing comes just over a year after a similar attack in September 2024, when three armed assailants from Jordan killed three Israeli civilians at the Israel news crossing. In that incident, one of the assailants managed to reach the crossing with a truck carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The Israeli military is currently investigating the recent shooting at the Allenby Crossing. No further details have been released at this time.
The Allenby Bridge is a vital link between the two countries, facilitating not only trade but also the movement of people and goods. The closure of the crossing due to the shooting has disrupted these activities and caused inconvenience to many.
The situation is being closely monitored by both Israeli and Jordanian authorities, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available. In the meantime, the focus remains on ensuring the safety and security of the people using the Israel news crossing.
