Security Forces Apprehend Three Terrorists Linked to Karak Church Attack

Karak:Joint security units and specialized commando teams successfully captured three terrorists associated with the attack on a church in Hmoud village, Karak Governorate. The arrests followed a pre-dawn operation on Monday, concluding an intensive, non-stop manhunt.

According to Jordan News Agency, continuous search and tracking operations allowed intelligence teams to locate the suspects' hideout in an abandoned house in Karak Governorate. Upon being ordered to surrender, the barricaded suspects opened fire on the perimeter.

Security forces responded under standard rules of engagement, wounding and disarming all three men before taking them into custody. There were no casualties reported among the security personnel, and a search of the location uncovered a quantity of firearms and live ammunition.

The Public Security Directorate (PSD) emphasized that "terrorism has no place among us," asserting that those violating the law, faith, and moral standards faced a swift response from law enforcement. The directorate reiterated its determination to act decisively against any threats to national stability or citizen safety.

The terrorist attack targeted a church in Hmoud village in Karak Governorate on Friday, resulting in nine deaths and injuring 34 individuals.
