Ammon News - An Israeli defense official said that Israel will reopen the King Hussein Bridge/ Karamah Crossing for the transfer of aid and goods from Jordan to the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, starting Wednesday, December 10, 2025.

The crossing was closed in September after an operation carried out by Jordanian truck driver Abdulmutallab al-Qaisi, who was transporting humanitarian aid to Gaza, killed two Israeli soldiers at the crossing. The crossing opened several days later for pedestrians only.

The official says that in recent weeks, “security adjustments” were carried out at the crossing, on both the Israeli and Jordanian sides.

“In addition, screening and security-profiling procedures for the Jordanian drivers and for the contents of the trucks have been tightened, and dedicated security forces have been assigned to secure the crossing,” the official says.

The official says that following those adjustments, and in accordance with “the directive of the political echelon,” Israel will reopen the crossing for cargo heading into the West Bank and destined for the Gaza Strip, starting on Wednesday.
