Jordan Sentences 3 Men to Death over Karak Church Attack
A Jordanian court on Sunday sentenced three men to death by hanging for carrying out last month's deadly gun attack on a church in the kingdom's south. Gunmen killed nine people and wounded 25 others when they stormed a funeral at a Greek Orthodox church in Hamoud village, in Jordan's Karak governorate on October 23. Authorities said three men, two Jordanian brothers and their relative by marriage, had fled after the attack and were arrested three days later.
