Israel reopened the Allenby Bridge crossing between the occupied West Bank and Jordan after a 2-day closure following the killing of three Israelis in a shooting attack, Anadolu reports.

The crossing was reopened to travelers, but not to the movement of goods, the Israeli public broadcaster KAN said.

The Jordanian authorities reopened the terminal, also called King Hussein Crossing, to travelers. It, however, remains closed to the cargo movement.

In a statement, the Jordanian Public Security Directorate urged travelers to adhere to instructions and schedules to save time and efforts at the crossing.
