Shooting attack killed three men near the Israel-Jordan border.

Large Magen David Adom forces were dispatched to the scene of a shooting at the Allenby Crossing separating Jordan and the West Bank. Following a call to the call center, MDA immediately sent helicopters, ambulances, MICUs and Medicycles to the scene of the incident where three men were shot and killed.

After resuscitation efforts, MDA paramedics, in cooperation with a medical team from the IDF, pronounced the deaths of the three men due to gunshot wounds. The Times of Israel reported that the men killed worked at the Allenby Bridge and that the shooter was a Jordanian truck driver.

“This was a very severe incident,” reflected EMT Yotam Tzur. “We found three men lying unconscious, without a pulse, not breathing, and with gunshot wounds. Together with the IDF medical team, we performed resuscitation efforts, but unfortunately, we had to declare their deaths at the scene.”
