JERICHO (Ma’an) -- The Allenby Bridge crossing between the Palestinian West Bank and Jordan will operate reduced hours on Wednesday and Thursday due to Jewish Passover holidays, an official said.

The last bus will leave the Palestinian side of the crossing at 5 p.m., while the last bus from the Jordanian side will depart at 5.30 p.m., director of the crossings department Nathmi Muhanna told Ma'an.

The bridge is the sole border crossing open to most Palestinians in the West Bank.
