Jordanian humanitarian aid truck driver kills two soldiers at Allenby Crossing at Jordan border

A Jordanian humanitarian aid truck driver killed two Israeli soldiers who were coordinating humanitarian aid at the Allenby Crossing on the Jordanian border on Thursday, defense sources told The Jerusalem Post.

The soldiers were approximately 60 and 20 years old, Magen David Adom said.

At least one suspected terrorist was killed; however, there may have been an additional accomplice, the sources told the Post.

Large numbers of troops are conducting searches at the scene, including Duvdevan reservists, YATAM troops, and forces from Battalion 47, the source said.

Israel is probably going to close the crossing now.
