Reuters

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.
