The Palestinian Authority said Thursday that the main crossing linking the occupied West Bank with Jordan will reopen Friday after more than a week of closure, Anadolu reports. Nazmi Mhanna, head of the PA’s General Authority for Crossings and Borders, said in a statement that traffic in both directions would resume, urging travelers to follow official updates on operating hours. There was no Israeli confirmation yet of the report. Israel shut the Allenby/King Hussein Bridge on Sept. 18 following a shooting that killed two Israeli soldiers. On Tuesday, Israeli Army Radio reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had decided to keep the crossing closed “until further notice.” READ: Palestine condemns Israel’s closure of West Bank-Jordan crossing, calls for immediate reopening Early […]
