Allenby Border Crossing attack: Two killed between Jordan and occupied West Bank

Two Israeli soldiers have been killed in an attack at the Allenby Border Crossing, between Jordan and the occupied West Bank. The Israeli military says the Jordanian attacker—who was a driver bringing in aid for Gaza—was armed with a gun and a knife. He was killed by security forces at the scene. Last year, a Jordanian man opened fire in the same area, killing three people. Israel’s military has now advised the government to block humanitarian aid coming through the crossing.

Al Jazeera’s Hamdah Salhut reports from Amman. She’s there because the Israeli government has banned Al Jazeera from reporting from Israel and the occupied West Bank.
