Palestinians in West Bank stranded as Israel shuts only international crossing
JERUSALEM – Israel has closed the only crossing between the Israeli-occupied West Bank and neighbouring Jordan, stopping more than two million Palestinians from accessing the outside world.The Israeli airports authority, which oversees the Allenby Bridge crossing, said it would be closed indefinitely from Wednesday morning "at the direction of the political leadership". It did not provide a reason.The closure has stranded many Palestinians in the West Bank, who are unable to go on planned trips abroad.
