A shooting at church in the southern Jordanian governorate of Karak left seven people dead and another 10 wounded on Friday, Jordanian authorities said.
What do we know so far?
A security source told Jordanian state broadcaster Al-Mamlaka that the shooting occurred at the Hammoud Church. The shooting reportedly occurred during a funeral.
The attackers' identities and motives remain unclear. Two men opened fire on the funeral procession.
Gun attacks like the one on the church in Karak are rare in Jordan.
Although Jordan is largely a Muslim-majority country of around 11.5 million people, there is a small Christian minority of a couple hundred thousand. The Karak region, about 180 kilometers (110 miles) south of Amman, has a significant Christian population.
