The Israeli military said a truck driver opened fire Sunday at an Israeli border crossing between the occupied West Bank and Jordan, killing three Israeli guards before being "eliminated" by security forces.
Israel said "a terrorist" reached the area of the Allenby Bridge Crossing, also known as King Hussein Crossing, in a truck "from Jordan". The driver "exited the truck and opened fire at Israeli security forces operating at the bridge," a military statement said.
"Three Israeli civilians were pronounced dead as a result of the attack," the military said, later clarifying that they were "working as security guards" and not part of the army or police forces.
The attacker was shot dead by forces, the military added.
