Three Israelis killed in shooting attack at the West Bank-Jordan border crossing • FRANCE 24 English

Three Israelis were tragically shot and killed at the border crossing between the West Bank and Jordan in a suspected attack linked to the ongoing conflict in Gaza. The incident occurred when a gunman approached the Allenby Bridge Crossing from the Jordanian side in a truck and opened fire at Israeli security forces. The military responded by engaging in a shootout with the attacker, resulting in his death.

The victims, all men in their 50s, were identified as civilians by Israel’s Magen David Adom rescue service. This brazen attack has once again highlighted the fragile security situation in the region, with tensions running high amidst the ongoing violence in Gaza.

The attack serves as a reminder of the continued threat of violence in the region, and the need for increased vigilance and security measures to protect innocent civilians. As investigations into the incident continue, authorities will be working to determine the motives behind the attack and bring those responsible to justice.

Our thoughts are with the families and loved ones of the victims during this difficult time.
