Jordan's foreign ministry condemned the attack at the Allenby Crossing in a statement. The ministry noted that preliminary investigations indicate it was an isolated incident and reiterated Jordan's "firm stance rejecting and condemning violence and harm to civilians for any reason."

The statement also emphasised Jordan's ongoing efforts to secure a permanent ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, de-escalate tensions in the West Bank, and lead a "genuine political effort".

The ministry's spokesperson stressed that a just peace based on a two-state solution "is the only way to achieve security and stability for all and to stop the spread of violence and the escalation of the conflict in the region".
