Allenby Bridge
The Allenby Bridge ((ヘブライ語:גשר אלנבי), ''Gesher Allenby''), also known as the King Hussein Bridge ((アラビア語:جسر الملك حسين), ''Jisr al-Malek Hussein''), is a bridge that crosses the Jordan River, and connects the West Bank with Jordan. Other than through the West Bank, the bridge is currently the sole designated exit/entry point for West Bank Palestinians traveling in and out of the region.
== History ==
The original bridge was built in 1918 over a remnant of an old Ottoman colonial era bridge by the British general Edmund Allenby. The original bridge had been built in 1885 by the Ottoman government of the Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem.〔(Hamidian Palestine: Politics and Society in the District of Jerusalem 1872-1908 p448 )〕
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.〔()〕 This new structure is currently used exclusively.
