约旦逮捕三名致命教堂袭击嫌疑人 官方媒体报道10月26日 —— 据官方电视台周一报道，约旦安全部队已逮捕三名与袭击一座教堂有关的嫌疑人，该袭击造成九人死亡。约旦是美国的盟友。
Jordan arrests three suspects in deadly church attack, state media says Oct 26 - Jordanian security forces have arrested three suspects in connection with an attack on a church in the US-allied country that killed nine people, state television reported on Monday.
袭击发生在周五，地点位于首都安曼西南约120公里（75英里）的卡拉克省哈穆德村的一座希腊东正教教堂。当时正在举行葬礼，枪手开火射击，造成40人受伤。目击者称，枪击持续了几分钟。
The attack, in which gunmen opened fire during a funeral at a Greek Orthodox church on Friday in the village of Hamoud in Karak governorate, about 120 km (75 miles) southwest of the capital Amman, also wounded 40 others. The shooting lasted several minutes, witnesses said.
约旦公共安全局称，安全部队于周一早些时候在卡拉克一栋废弃房屋内发现了这三名藏匿的嫌疑人。公共安全局在官方媒体发布的声明中表示，嫌疑人拒绝投降并向安全部队开火，安全部队还击并将三名嫌疑人在受伤后全部逮捕。声明称，无安保人员受伤，嫌疑人被捕后，搜出多支枪支和弹药。
Jordan's Public Security Directorate said security forces located the three suspects early on Monday hiding in an abandoned house in Karak. The suspects refused to surrender and opened fire on security forces, who returned fire and arrested all three after they were wounded, the directorate said in a statement carried on state media. No security personnel were injured, and a number of firearms and ammunition were found in the suspects' possession after their arrest.
公共安全局表示：“恐怖主义在我们中间没有立足之地”，并补充说嫌疑人已得到“应有的下场”。
"Terrorism has no place among us," the directorate said, adding that the suspects had met their "just fate".
公共安全局未透露嫌疑人的隶属关系，也未说明他们是否属于任何武装组织。
The Public Security Directorate did not identify the suspects' affiliation or say whether they belonged to any militant group.
约旦当局称，袭击是由“极端恐怖分子”实施的，但目前为时过早，无法确定他们是否与约旦境内外已知组织有关联。目前尚无组织宣称对此事负责。
Jordanian authorities have said the attack was carried out by "extremist terrorists", but it was too early to determine whether they had links to known groups inside or outside Jordan. There has been no claim of responsibility.
内政马赞·法拉亚周一表示，当局正在审视导致年轻人走向极端主义的原因，并将追究任何被发现参与袭击者的责任。
Interior Minister Mazen al-Faraya said on Monday authorities were reviewing the circumstances that led young people towards extremism and would hold accountable anyone found to have participated in the attack.
作为美国在打击伊斯兰激进武装组织斗争中的伙伴，阿卜杜拉国王已下令安全部队以“铁腕”回应这起针对约旦基督教少数群体的罕见袭击。
King Abdullah, a US partner in the fight against Islamist militant groups, has ordered security forces to respond with an "iron fist" to the rare attack on Jordan's Christian minority.
这种暴力事件在约旦极不寻常，约旦是中东地区一个相对稳定的国家，尽管当局称多年来已挫败了多起伊斯兰激进分子的阴谋。
Such violence is highly unusual in Jordan, a relatively stable state in the Middle East, though authorities say they have foiled several Islamist militant plots over the years.
