(Reuters) – Two people were killed in a shooting at the Allenby Crossing between the Israeli-occupied West Bank and Jordan, the Israeli ambulance service said on Thursday.
The ambulance added that an assailant was killed by the security forces.
The Israeli military has received a report of the shooting and details of the incident were being investigated, the military said. Israeli media reported that the two wounded Israelis had died.
The Allenby Bridge is a crucial crossing for trade between Jordan and Israel.
In September 2024, a gunman from Jordan killed three Israeli civilians at the Allenby Crossing before being shot dead by security forces, an attack that shut the crossing for two days.
