The occupation forces confirmed receiving reports of a shooting attack in the Allenby crossing area and closed the crossing following the incident.

Hebrew media later reported that the shooter at the Allenby crossing had been neutralized, though their identity remains unknown.

The spokesperson for Magen David Adom, "Israel's" national emergency services, provided an update on the recent attack near the Allenby border crossing.

Following resuscitation efforts, Magen David Adom paramedics, in coordination with the "Israeli" army medical team, confirmed the deaths of three "Israeli" settlers, approximately 50 years old, who sustained gunshot wounds.

An emergency medical responder from Magen David Adom stated, “This is an extremely serious situation. We found three men lying unconscious, with no pulse or breathing, and their injuries were caused by gunshots. Despite performing CPR in collaboration with the Israeli army medical team, we unfortunately had to declare them deceased at the scene.”

Furthermore, Nazmi Muhanna, Director-General of the Palestinian Crossings and Borders, announced that traffic at the Karameh Border Crossing, which connects the West Bank to Jordan, is completely halted.

In addition, the Israeli Occupation Forces intensified their military measures at the eastern entrance to Jericho.
