Raed Zeiter (Arabic: رائد زعيتر; c. 1976 – 10 March 2014) was a Jordanian judge who was shot dead by Israeli soldiers on 10 March 2014 at the Allenby Bridge border crossing between the Israeli-occupied West Bank and Jordan. Involved Israeli soldiers claimed that Zeiter had tried to snatch a weapon from a soldier and had also attacked them with a metal pole, an account that was disputed by a witness speaking to the international news media as well as representatives of the government of Jordan, among others. The event became an international incident, with Israel formally issuing a statement of regret.

Raed Zeiter, a Jordanian judge, was shot dead by Israeli soldiers in 2014 at the Allenby Bridge crossing, an incident Israel later called a matter of regret. Through October 2023 the opening quoted Israeli soldiers stating he was a 'terrorist', asserting he had tried to snatch a weapon and attacked them with a metal pole. Today the word terror is gone from the article entirely, though the soldiers' account of the alleged weapon grab and pole attack survives. A reader arriving now learns what the soldiers said he did, not that they themselves used the word terrorist to describe him.
