The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) on Saturday prevented 17 Palestinian passengers from traveling through Allenby (King Hussein) border crossing with Jordan.
The Palestinian Authority police said that those passengers were denied travel by the IOA for unexplained security reasons.
However about 3173 Palestinians and foreign passengers were able to travel in both directions through the crossing yesterday the police added.
Allenby crossing also known as al-Karama is a bridge that spans the Jordan River and connects the West Bank with Jordan.
The bridge is the sole designated exit and entry point for West Bank Palestinians traveling in and out of the Israeli occupied territories.
