Israel will reopen the sole crossing accessible to Palestinians between the West Bank and Jordan on Friday, the three sides said, after it was closed ahead of the Rosh Hashanah holiday, and was also shuttered for days following a deadly terror attack last week.

The Palestinian Crossing and Borders Authority announced in a statement the resumption of operations at the Allenby Crossing “starting from tomorrow, Friday… in both directions.”

The Israel Airports Authority said the terminal would be open only for passenger traffic from Friday morning, “in accordance with the directive of the political echelon.”

The Jordanian Public Security Directorate said the crossing, also known as the King Hussein Bridge, would be open from 8 a.m. (0500 GMT) to 12:30 p.m. (0930 GMT).

The crossing in the Jordan Valley is the only international gateway for Palestinians from the West Bank that does not require entering Israel, but is manned by Israeli forces, who have controlled the territory since 1967.

It had been largely closed since a Jordanian truck driver transporting humanitarian aid to Gaza shot dead an Israeli soldier and a reserve officer at the border last week.

Jordan had on Sunday reopened the crossing to pedestrian traffic — not cargo — but Israel abruptly closed the crossing hours later.

The crossing reopened on Monday, but closed again ahead of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, which began Monday night and lasted until Wednesday night.

On Tuesday, Palestinian Authority officials and Jordanian authorities claimed Israel was indefinitely closing the crossing, which Palestinians feared was retaliation by Israel for France and other Western countries formally recognizing a Palestinian state.

The crossing usually closes over Jewish holidays.

While it had reopened to passengers, the Allenby Crossing has remained closed to humanitarian aid shipments en route to the Gaza Strip until the investigation into the killing at the border point is completed and the inspection procedures for Jordanian drivers are updated.
