一群枪手周五在约旦一座基督教教堂的葬礼上发动袭击，造成九人死亡、二十多人受伤，当局表示。
A group of gunmen stormed a Christian church in Jordan during a funeral on Friday, killing nine people and injuring more than two dozen, according to authorities.
枪击案发生在首都安曼以南约 55 英里（约 88 公里）的卡拉克市一座希腊东正教教堂。
The shooting took place at a Greek Orthodox church in Karak, about 55 miles south of the capital, Amman.
约旦卫生部长易卜拉欣·布杜尔周六表示，一名重伤患者仍在阿里王子军事医院住院，病情不稳定。
Jordanian Health Minister Ibrahim al-Budour said Saturday that one critically injured patient remained hospitalized at Prince Ali Military Hospital in unstable condition.
政府发言人穆罕默德·穆马尼周六称，袭击者信奉“极端塔克菲里意识形态”，这种意识形态将拒绝严格伊斯兰教义解释的人视为叛教者或非信徒。伊斯兰国等恐怖组织曾援引塔克菲里信仰，为杀害穆斯林、基督徒和犹太人辩护。
Government spokesperson Mohammad Momani said Saturday that the attackers subscribed to "extremist takfiri ideology," which brands people who reject a strict interpretation of Islam as apostates or nonbelievers. Terrorist groups such as ISIS have invoked takfiri beliefs to justify killing Muslims, Christians and Jews.
卡拉克拥有相当规模的基督教少数群体，穆马尼强调基督徒是“约旦国家肌理的一部分”。袭击者是否与任何恐怖组织有关联仍不清楚，约旦当局尚未宣布因该袭击而逮捕任何人。
Karak is home to a sizable Christian minority, and Momani sought to emphasize that Christians are "part of Jordan's national fabric." It remains unclear whether the gunmen were affiliated with any terror group, and Jordanian authorities have not announced any arrests in connection with the attack.
约旦国家电视台播放的画面显示，两名持有疑似手枪的枪手走近教堂并开火，随后第三名持有疑似半自动步枪的男子加入，三人随即冲向教堂，美联社报道。
Footage shown on Jordanian state television showed two gunmen armed with what appeared to be pistols approaching the church and opening fire, The Associated Press reported. A third man carrying what appeared to be a semiautomatic rifle joined them moments later, before all three rushed toward the church.
目击者拍摄的照片和视频显示，教堂内玻璃破碎、血迹斑斑。警方控制现场后，教堂外可见两具用毯子盖着的尸体。
Photos and videos from witnesses show broken glass and pools of blood inside the church. After the location was secured by police, two bodies covered with blankets were seen outside the church.
多尔加姆·哈拉萨告诉美联社，葬礼开始约 15 分钟后，教堂内爆发激烈枪声，人们开始奔跑逃生。
Dorgham Halasa told the AP that intense gunfire erupted in the church some 15 minutes after the funeral service began. People began running, he said.
哈拉萨称自己未看到枪手，但据他交谈的其他人说，至少有四名枪手。截至周六，约旦当局尚未证实袭击者人数。
Halasa said he didn't see the gunmen, but said others he spoke with reported seeing at least four of them. Jordanian authorities had not confirmed the number of attackers as of Saturday.
周五，阿卜杜拉二世国王表示，约旦将“以最严厉的惩罚对袭击卡拉克的恐怖行为进行对抗”。
On Friday, King Abdullah II said Jordan will "confront the terrorist act that targeted Karak with the harshest penalties."
他补充道：“谁要是以为叛徒的子弹能分裂约旦人的队伍，谁就会在我们的坚定和团结面前落空。”他还说：“向烈士家属致以最深切的慰问，祝愿伤者早日康复。”据国营佩特拉通讯社报道，袭击发生后，约旦宣布全国哀悼三天。
"Whoever imagines that the bullets of treachery can divide the ranks of Jordanians will fail in his endeavor before our steadfastness and unity," he added. "Our deepest condolences to the families of the martyrs, and our wishes for recovery to the wounded." Jordan announced three days of national mourning following the attack, according to the state-run Petra News Agency.
