Beirut (Reuters): A gunman from Jordan killed three Israeli civilians at the Allenby Bridge border crossing in the occupied West Bank before security forces shot him dead on Sunday, Israeli authorities said.

It was the first attack of its kind along the border with Jordan since Oct. 7, when Palestinian Islamist group Hamas carried out an assault on southern Israel, sparking the war in Gaza that has escalated throughout the region.

The attack took place in a commercial cargo area under Israeli control where Jordanian trucks offload cargo entering the West Bank, officials said. The crossing, also known as the King Hussein Bridge, lies about midway between Amman and Jerusalem just north of the Dead Sea.

The assailant was a 39-year-old truck driver who came from the influential Huwaitat tribe in southern Jordan, according to family members.

"A terrorist approached the area of the Allenby Bridge from Jordan in a truck, exited the truck, and opened fire at the Israeli security forces operating at the bridge," the Israeli military said.

Islamabad: Police has initiated against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) following their failure to conclude their rally on time while SSP Safe City was injured due to stone-throwing by the demonstrators.

Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi has sought report from Islamabad IG Police.

As soon as the scheduled end time of the rally passed, police started baton-charging the participants. Reportedly police also fired tear gas shells at the participants of the rally.

Details indicate that clashes erupted between the rally attendees and the police. The District Magistrate has directed the police to take stringent action against PTI.

Administration said that PTI did not adhere to the conditions of the No Objection Certificate (NOC).

During the protest, SSP Safe City was injured due to stone-throwing by the demonstrators. Additionally, at the 26 Number Chungi, rally participants violated the designated route.

According to media reports, when the police attempted to stop them, the rally-goers responded by throwing stones, resulting in injuries to several police personnel. 

The deputy commissioner had made it clear that if the stone pelting continues, then police will start arresting workers.

"Now the public gathering has become illegal, so therefore the cases will be registered if the instructions of ending the rally will not be followed," the deputy commissioner added.

Islamabad: Deputy commissioner ICT Irfan Memon said that legal action will be taken against the PTI organizers for the violation of NOC.
He said that administration had conveyed to the PTI rally organizers to end the rally before 7pm but they violated the conditions of NOC. 
This has been further said that PTI will not be granted NOC for next time as it has violated the NOC.
