Allenby Bridge crossing the only bridge for Palestinians from the West Bank to reach Jordan and the whole world
Israel closed the only gateway between the West Bank occupied by Israeli on Friday, one day after a driver providing humanitarian aid from Jordan for Gaza opened fire and killed two Israeli soldiers there.
The Israeli airport authority, which exploits the crossing of the Allenby bridge, announced that it would be closed until further notice.
The two crossings between Israel itself and Jordan were also affected, the crossing of the Jordan river in the closed north and the Rabin crossing to the south only opens for workers.
No group immediately claimed the responsibility of the attack on the Allenby bridge, which is a key route for trade between Jordan and Israel and the only gateway for more than 3 million Palestinians in the West Bank to reach Jordan and the whole world.
