31°52′27″N 35°32′27″E  /  31.87417°N 35.54083°E  / 31.87417; 35.54083 The Allenby Bridge ( , Gesher Alenbi ), also known as the King Hussein Bridge ( , Jisr al-Malek Hussein ), is a bridge that crosses the Jordan River , and connects Jericho in the West Bank to the country of Jordan .1It is currently the designated exit/entry point for Palestinians residing in the West Bank traveling to and from the Kingdom of Jordan to the West Bank and Israel. The original bridge was built in 1918 over a remnant of an old Ottoman colonial era bridge by the British general Edmund Allenby . It was destroyed once in the Night of the bridges operation by Palmach at June 16, 1946. It was destroyed again during the Six-Day War , but was replaced in 1968 with a temporary truss-type bridge . This bridge is still called the Allenby Bridge by Israelis, although it is also known as Al- Karameh Bridge to Palestinian Arabs, and the King Hussein Bridge to Jordanians. In the late 1990s, and subsequent to the Israel-Jordan peace treaty , a new modern paved crossing was constructed adjacent to the older wooden one with the aid of the Japanese Government .2
