Three Israeli civilians were shot and killed at the Allenby Bridge border crossing between the West Bank and Jordan in an attack linked to ongoing violence in the region. The gunman approached from the Jordanian side in a truck, opened fire on Israeli security forces, and was subsequently killed in the exchange. Jordan has closed the crossing as it investigates the incident, which occurred in a commercial area under Israeli control. This shooting follows an escalation of violence in the West Bank since Hamas' attack on October 7, which has resulted in increased military actions and retaliatory strikes. In Gaza, an Israeli airstrike reportedly killed five people, including two women and two children, raising the death toll to over 40,000 Palestinians since the start of the conflict. The situation remains tense, with both Israeli and Palestinian casualties continuing to rise amid the ongoing war.
