Three people shot dead at West Bank and Jordan border crossing
West Bank

THREE people were shot and killed today at the border crossing between the West Bank and Jordan, Israeli officials said.

The Israeli military said the gunman approached the Allenby Bridge, crossing from the Jordanian side in a truck and opened fire at Israeli security forces, who killed the assailant in a shoot out. 

This came a day after Israel was engulfed in more mass protests demanding a ceasefire deal to free hostages taken by Hamas.
