“A gunman from Jordanian territory opened fire towards an Israeli military patrol without causing any injuries, as reported by the Israeli Army Radio.
The incident of shooting towards an Israeli military patrol occurred at the border crossing known as Sheikh Hussein, located in the northern Jordan Valley, in the early hours of today.
Israeli military sources clarified that the gunman did not cross the border fence but carried out the shooting and then retreated to Jordanian territory.
Israeli security authorities investigated the incident, noting that the gunman did not breach Israeli borders. It was later revealed that the suspect had entered Israeli territory through the Jordan River crossing and fired at a military patrol on routine duty.
There have been no official comments yet from the Jordanian authorities regarding this incident.
This incident comes amidst escalating public anger towards Israel in Jordan due to the deadly events in Gaza. Despite Jordanian authorities allowing peaceful demonstrations, they take strict measures against any attempts to approach the borders with the occupied Palestinian territories or even the Israeli embassy in Amman.“
