Jordan strikes southern Syria after linking church attackers to 'terrorist groups'

📍 Syria, SY·🕐 1h ago·45 outlets

Oct 26 (Reuters) - Jordan said on Monday its air force struck what it described as militant hideouts in southern Syria after determining that the attackers behind last week's deadly church attack were linked to "terrorist groups" operating there. There was no immediate comment from Syrian authorities and it was not clear if the strikes were carried out after coordination with Damascus.
