The Israel Airports Authority declares the Allenby Crossing between the West Bank and Jordan closed until further notice following yesterday’s attack in which two Israeli soldiers were killed, APA reports, citing Times of Israel.
The perpetrator of the shooting and stabbing attack was a Jordanian who had been driving a humanitarian aid truck heading from Jordan to the Gaza Strip.
The northern Jordan River Crossing has also been closed until further notice. The Israel-Jordan Rabin Crossing near Eilat is only open to workers, while the Taba Crossing with Egypt is operating normally, according to the IAA statement.
