According to Syrian media reports, in the middle of the night of October 26 local time, explosions were heard near the towns of Nassib and Muzarib in the southern Syrian province of Daraa. The head of the health department of the Dara'a provincial authority said that Jordan launched air raids on Dara'a province, causing many deaths. The Jordanian military issued a statement saying that the air strike was in retaliation for the attack on a church in Jordan's Karak province on October 23. The statement stated, “The terrorists who launched the attack in Karak province are linked to the terrorist organization that was attacked by air in Syria. The Jordanian Air Force destroyed many terrorist strongholds, causing many terrorist deaths and injuries, and destroyed all of their equipment.” The Jordanian armed forces emphasized that they would resolutely fight back against anyone who attempted to disrupt the safety of Jordanians, and reiterated that they would “continue to fight terrorism at the source.” On October 23, a group of unidentified militants opened fire on a church in Karak province in southern Jordan, killing 9 people and injuring dozens. The Jordanian interior minister said it was a “terrorist attack carried out by an extremist group.”
