Three Israelis shot dead at West Bank-Jordan crossing

Three Israeli men have been shot dead at a border point between Jordan and the occupied West Bank, Israeli officials say.

A gunman approached the Allenby Bridge crossing from the Jordanian side in a truck then got out and opened fire, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said.

Security personnel "eliminated" the gunman and the IDF checked the truck over for signs of explosives, a statement said.
