Ammon News - Occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stressed the joint effort with Jordan to secure their shared border.

During his visit on Wednesday to an army outpost overlooking the Jordan Valley, Netanyahu said: "We know that we need to secure our eastern border with Jordan."

Challenges are increasing, said Netanyahu, days after an attack at the King Hussein Border Crossing/Allenby border crossing with Jordan left three Israelis dead.

Netanyahu said Israel will work to “construct a stronger barrier” to fight smuggling.

According to the Times of Israel, There is an aging fence along the 309-kilometer (192-mile) border that Jordan shares with Israel and the West Bank, though military and police officials say it is sufficient to prevent most gun-smuggling attempts.

Last month, occupation Foreign Minister Israel Katz called for a security fence to be built “quickly” along the Israel-Jordan border.
