Jordan arrests three suspects and strikes Syrian hideouts after deadly church attack

Jordanian security forces detained three men, all wounded, following a shootout at an abandoned house in Karak on Monday. The suspects are linked to the Friday attack on St George's Greek Orthodox Church in Hammoud, which killed nine people and injured dozens. Jordan's air force then bombed military hideouts in southern Syria, where the suspects were believed to be hiding, resulting in civilian casualties. The arrests were confirmed by the Public Security Directorate and Interior Minister Mazen Al‑Faraya, while the Syrian health official reported at least five civilian deaths from the strikes.
