Police at the scene where three Israelis were killed in a terror shooting attack at Allenby bridge, a crossing between West Bank and Jordan, September 8, 2024

Terror threat on Israel expands beyond Gaza, West Bank into Jordan – analysis

The recent terror attack on the 8th of September comes as part of the ongoing smuggling of weaponry and drugs to the West Bank since October 7th

A terrorist attack at the Allenby Crossing is a serious development and illustrates the growing terror threat that is emerging in the West Bank and may also be spreading to the Kingdom of Jordan as well. Three people were killed in the attack on Sunday morning, September 8.

The perpetrator of the attack arrived at the crossing in a truck. “A terrorist approached the area of the Allenby Bridge from Jordan in a truck, exited the truck, and opened fire at the Israeli security forces operating at the bridge,” the IDF said. “The terrorist was eliminated by the security forces, three Israeli civilians were pronounced dead as a result of the attack. IDF soldiers were dispatched to the scene and are currently operating to rule out the suspicion of the truck being rigged with explosives.”

The attack at the Allenby Crossing comes a week after an attack in the southern West Bank killed three Israeli police. Police officers Arik Ben Eliyahu, Hadas Branch, and Roni Shakuri, were killed in an attack near Tarkumiya, which is a major crossing point for trade items and workers crossing from the West Bank.

Deadly terror threat spreads

While the attack at Allenby, which is the major border crossing between Israel and Jordan for many goods entering the Palestinian Authority and Israel, is not likely connected to the attack at Tarkumiya, both of these attacks symbolize how the deadly terror threat is growing.
