The Israel Airports Authority says all the land crossings with Jordan have been closed until further notice, following the deadly shooting terror attack at Allenby Bridge between the West Bank and Jordan.

In addition to the closure of Allenby Bridge Crossing, the IAA says the Rabin crossing near Eilat and the Jordan River crossing near Beit She’an are closed at the request of security authorities.
