Two Israeli men shot dead in attack near West Bank-Jordan crossing, Israeli military says

  • Two Israeli men aged about 20 and 60 were shot dead near the Allenby Crossing between the West Bank and Jordan on Thursday afternoon.
  • The attack took place when an assailant from Jordan, who was delivering humanitarian supplies, opened fire, prompting security personnel to kill the attacker on site.
  • Following the shooting, the Allenby Crossing was shut down, and significant security personnel were dispatched to the site to conduct searches for any accomplices.
  • The Israeli military reported that the attacker was eliminated on site by security personnel, and an inquiry has been initiated to clarify the details and wider impact of the incident.
  • This event occurred nearly a year after a comparable assault at the same location in September 2024, which resulted in the deaths of three Israelis, underscoring persistent regional tensions discussed at a current Arab-Islamic summit.
