CCTV footage, verified by the BBC, appears to shows three gunmen making their way from a road toward the church. Two of the attackers are seen making their way on to what appears to be a vehicle entrance to the church grounds, before retreating briefly and returning with a third man. All three appear to be armed with handguns. Separate footage believed to be from the aftermath of the attack appears to show several dead and wounded bodies on the ground amid some chaotic scenes.

Many looked distressed as roads were closed around the facility and people were forced to park their cars and continue on foot. Security measures were also tightened ahead of the visit by King Abdullah II to check on the injured. The atmosphere around the hospital remained tense as the sound of crying and shouting was heard as families mourned their loved ones. Many people appear shocked, frightened and angry. Some expressed frustration at what they described as "a failure to take a tougher approach towards terrorists". Karak has a sizeable Christian community in the majority-Muslim Jordan. Such violence is rare in the country, but deadly attacks have been carried out in the past. Lebanon's President Joseph Aoun, a Christian head of state, said the "heinous terrorist attack" on the church "violated the sanctity of death and funeral mourners, contradicts all religious and humanitarian values," according to Lebanese media.

As for me, according to my guardian my uncle that I lived with for more than 15 years of my teenage life, always said we drank (agbo) which is herbal mixture till we grow up in life. Living in the village in those days, we hardly heard of hospital or injection etc. for more than a decade when I was there. They used an Alternative medication to everything, including Cutlass, hoe, falling, any injuries, snake bites, and other maternity cases. I have seen it back then. You will hardly see anyone sick for long in the village, and we are all very healthy and strong kikiriki. Until I relocated to the city coz of my high school education before been introduced to modern drugs and treatments. So, nothing bad in good and real herbal treatment. Am still using them till date at 49 now and nothing is wrong with me. Jmichael1: |

Respect the dude[/quote] |
Thanks for these bro. Anyhow people are just too many in this forum. Instead of contributing something meaningful concerning the topic. They will be deviating and started tribal , polical or religious fighting that makes no sense at all. Can someone please tell this politicians that, the teacher that was short dead, and the one they gruesome beheaded on that dark day, what will happen to their family and loved one? Didn't they deserve benefits and compensations also? Or their family also not passing through Even bigger trauma? Let them tell us please Guestmale: |
It is a very serious offence to insult an officer of any department of security forces in any country, let alone hitting them with whatever while on uniform either on or off duty. They have just beaten the whole Police with that action and the consequences will be significant. At the station level, police will be very bitter on them and wanted to take revenge on them for beating their colleagues. Secondly, their detentions will be no mercy at all caused of their offence. Police will see their action as an insults on them and they will perceived it as an attack on them. They will show them hell in stations before they will hand them over to court for proceeding. Surely, their life has been messed up with this development and they wont be free again for long time from now. vr0xen: |

Mountbatten:Pray that africa as a continent produce a player that will even half his record and success in football ⚽ genre. Stop hating he's not the reason for your current situation |
Whoever succeeded him will also be on a time bomb as usual. The same problems and fate facing the predecessors are there to hunt the incoming. The Brexit is the problem. Sir Kier would have help the country if allow to complete his time in office and be supported. Hungry for power and changing leadership would only worsening their already bad situation. Akinzo2121: |
She can also died from the injury and pain sustained from a whole 74 strokes of Cain. I was once flogged in my secondary school time by one of our most wicked teacher like that a 15 lashes while senior student held my legs and hands tight. I knew what i passed through then let alone 74 for a soft woman like this and that is horse whip will be use by one heavy terrorist that hate civilization with passion. i pity her. what a religion and country. tonardo: |
If it exam, that is how you will just scored zero. Troubling the universe with incessant and paranoid behavior make DT popular a bit. Many people don't even want to hear his any anywhere closer. Messi in the other hand, is not popular more that Ronaldo. I travelled vastly. I was surprised to see some country wearing cr7 Jersey and written his name on their cars and trucks and in the street everywhere. Asked children in any school that loved football ⚽ who they want to be like, you will hear Ronaldo overwhelmingly. He is very popular I can tell from my experiences around. But MJ still be the most among them till date. ElevationD: |
femi4:SA is an average team. We are talking about world class teams like Spain, Brazil Portugal France etc. Apart from south Africa is an average or even below a bit, The nemesis of their actions towards their black brothers and sisters within Africa is also catching up with them. And it has nit even start yet. There are price for everything including human actions. |
The tournament just start bro. It is too early to judged anyone or team. Under performed tesm at the beginning usually does better as they progressed. Check out the tournaments history not only wc but generally. Things will still changes in the next 2 remaining group matches. femi4: |
femi4:You guys should stop your mental challenge talks over portugal and cr7. Portugal 🇵🇹 with cr7 is still one of the best team in this wc. The surprise performance that drc qave yesterday can weight down any team out there. Your Messi team won't have the same easy game they had with weak Algeria team they play. Do you watched the matter? SENEGAL, CABO VERDE AND DRC performances so far in this tournament will upset Argentina by far magin if they met eventually the same. So stop hyping. It depends on the team performance you met bro. Portugal 🇵🇹 gave their best like Spain did. Messi lost against underdog Saudi Arabia in Qatar on their first match and your Messi play full game no one crucified him. Wait let Argentina meet better team first before you guys talk out your Messi louder. |

Killallmuslims:What I objected in marriage is mandatory sharing a bills and responsibilities of the house with your wife. It is unafrican. Even our traditions don't support it as well, unless she's willing to help freely. Apart from that. Any woman setting conditions for marriages are not meant for marriage. They should just leave the marriage matter alone and continue with their memory lane. |
Expanse2020:Brother. Please visit a true Islamic cleric who can tells you the truth about the preaching of Islam at onset. I have never read an Al quran because am a Christian also from a Muslim and a Christian family. There are several movies out there that can also help you. The only one I can remember is THE MESSANGER. But clearly there are other as well that I have watched but nit remember their title. Islam came before Christianity, But when the Christianity started after many decades or centuries of existence of Islam, those that are watched from far and near realised that they do things differently but most importantly their tolerance. That divided Islamic ideology in accent babylonia in today Iraq. I read those book in Liberary at Malaysia 18.yrs ago I was surprised. The bottom line is, there are shitte alike Muslim everywhere that believe in severe punishment and fanatism doctrine of sharia. And those on Sunni side are moderate. But both are Muslim in different ideology. |
Brother, never mind them. Even the bible said that, by their fruits you shall know them. Many people supporting Iran didn't no anything about the implications that shiatte teaching has caused the world since 1979 shatte revolution take over in iran. Why Iraq under saddam fought them for 8 years. Why All other sunni Muslims countries in the Middle East which are majority hate them? Simply because, their hardliners teaching which is stricter sharia law that gave birth to the terrorism world wide and still growing up till today. Lebanon sunnis, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Iraq sunnies and all other sunni countries in the world today are praying for departure of IRCG. The main semi official sophisticated terrorist unit in the world of today. The same the reason former coas of Nigeria crushed irania planted elsharky sharky in Nigeria and that brought grudges from Iran and the terrorist group to put Nigeria in their target list and that is what the price the innocent people are paying today. All their ballistic missiles were intercepted even before getting closer to their air space except the suicide drones that was blown up in Bahrain sky and the fragments case injury of a small girl on the ground Arrowhead71: |
To get sense is not that difficult if someone should think deeply before responding to any statement. What exactly could this woman and the innocent children who are in captivity of daredevil well armed terrorists that had beheaded and executed her staff member before her own very eyes should do? Would she disobey them? or you cannot just figured out what her emotion and sufferings entail in the video? She is doing exactly what they commanded her to do, or else, we all know the rest. anigold: |
Iran IRCG is living. The USCENTCOM has denied the report and Kuwait media also denied the report. What happened was that, US forces attacked Queshem Island in Hormuz over night and destroyed large irania missiles and drones capabilities plus blowing up an irania oil tanker that tried to bypass US blockade. In response. Iran fires 4 ballistic missiles and drones to Kuwait and Bahrain all of them are intercepted except the drone that managed to crash at Kuwaiti Airport killing a passenger and wounded 65 ppl on the check-in area of the terminal. That was a suicide drones, even if they were intercepted they will still managed to caused explosion because of multiple warheads they carry. It is a terrorist ideology. saturnjay: |
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has said it has targeted an American air base in the region, after fresh US strikes on southern Iran. The IRGC did not say where the base was, but Kuwait, which hosts a US base, said it had intercepted "hostile missile and drone threats". The US military said Iran had launched a ballistic missile towards Kuwait that was successfully intercepted by Kuwaiti forces, without specifying whether it was aimed at its military base. The Iranian missile launch came after the US shot down Iranian drones over the Strait of Hormuz and struck a military site in Bandar Abbas, a strategic port city in southern Iran. The renewed hostilities threaten a fragile ceasefire between Washington and Tehran. It is the second time in three days that the US has attacked targets in Iran - saying that the strikes were conducted in self defence. The IRGC said the attack on the US air base took place in the early hours of Thursday morning and targeted the site as it was "the source" of earlier US strikes on Iran, according to state broadcaster IRIB. US Central Command (Centcom) said Iran's attack on Kuwait was an "egregious ceasefire violation" that occurred "hours after Iranian forces launched five one-way attack drones that posed a clear threat in and near the Strait of Hormuz". It said all the drones were intercepted and that a sixth drone launched from an Iranian ground control site in Bandar Abbas was also prevented. Centcom described its actions as "measured, purely defensive, and intended to maintain the ceasefire". Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Esmail Baqai meanwhile condemned the US strikes and said they constituted a violation of the ceasefire. He added that the Islamic republic would "take all necessary measures to defend its national sovereignty", according to quotes cited by IRIB. Kuwait's foreign affairs ministry strongly condemned what it termed "criminal Iranian attacks that targeted" its territory. Earlier this week, the US confirmed a previous round of "self-defence" strikes on southern Iran on Monday in which they targeted Iranian missile sites and boats attempting to lay mines in the Strait, where thousands of commercial tanker ships are stranded as a result of the conflict. Centcom said those strikes were designed "to protect our troops from threats posed by Iranian forces". The US also imposed sanctions on the "Persian Gulf Strait Authority" – the Iranian body tasked with collecting payments from ships travelling through the Strait of Hormuz. Any ships that pay the authority could also be "exposed to the risk of sanctions", the US Treasury Department said in a statement. One-fifth of the world's liquefied natural gas and oil normally pass through the shipping channel, and its closure has impacted global fuel trade. Iran's foreign ministry spokesman Baqai said on Monday that Tehran was collecting fees for "navigational services" and it would continue to manage traffic through the waterway. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent described it as the "Iranian military's latest attempt to extort global maritime trade" and "proof" Iran is "desperate for cash". The IRGC also said on Tuesday that it had downed a US drone and fired at a fighter jet and another drone that entered Iranian airspace, but did not specify when. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c98r2qy5809o

I dated women of more younger age than myself in the last 2 decades. When I was 45yrs I had a gf of 21 years and she's always all over me, even at 48yrs I still has gf of 23yrs presently. My wife and kids lives in Germany and am here to take care of our business. Girls of nowadays don't care about age bracket s especially in Africa. All that mater to them is your personality, money and attractions. But in EU, dating a younger girls of her bracket of age is not only risky but unwise. You can only manipulate them with a chance if you are lucky, But majority of EU girls from 15 to 24 years of age has no maturity sense, relationship values, focus etc. all that matters to them is partying, clubbing, sex, and kinds of life things with their age group.

US President Donald Trump has said he is holding off a military attack on Iran planned for Tuesday at the request of Gulf states as "serious negotiations are now taking place". In a post on Truth Social, he said he had been asked to do so by the leaders of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. Trump said he had been informed that a deal would be made that is "very acceptable" to the US, adding that there would be "NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN!" But he warned that the US military would be prepared to "go forward with a full, large scale assault of Iran, on a moment's notice" if there was no acceptable deal reached. Iran has not publicly commented on Trump's latest statement. Over the weekend, Trump had warned Tehran that the "clock is ticking" as talks to bring the war to an end stalled. Israeli and US forces began massive air strikes on Iran on 28 February, while Tehran retaliated by firing drones and missiles at Israel and US targets in countries across the Gulf. A ceasefire agreed in April meant to facilitate talks has largely been observed despite occasional exchanges of fire. Iran has also continued to control the Strait of Hormuz, effectively closing the vital waterway through which around 20% of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas travels. The move, which Iran has said is in retaliation for US and Israeli attacks, has sent oil prices soaring globally. The US, for its part, has been enforcing a blockade of Iranian ports to exert pressure on Tehran to agree to its terms. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c7079e55zjro

The truth is that, women fell in love even more deeper, because they are very emotional in nature. But that love only come with attractions, either How you look, or always dressed, or your profession, or your possessions, power or most importantly fame. That will catch their attentions. They could even easily walk up their ways to where you can notice them or arranged a design or drama to interact with you, they are pretender and manipulators in nature. Don't also forget that, they are strict and observance more than we men. The bottom line is that, they do love based on attractions and expectations that will benefit them. Soltix9y: |
This your post identified your level of immaturity low esteem. There is nothing wrong in marrying single mothers, Except for their ex interferences or her personals bad characters if she has any. They are are more matured, experiences, and careful in their new relationships than non single mother girls or ladies out there. Well' it is good if she possessed good character, manner, and out or reach of her ex lover or husband. Majority of the main issues with them is their ex's. orikoku: |

Those bandits are from Kwara area, Coz Ekiti border with Kwara and Kogi. Ekiti and Ondo states bordering to south Eastern part by vast land. To get to Lagos from Ekiti state you will need to cross Ondo, Osun, Oyo and Ogun states to reach Lagos. Unlike south eastern states that are far more closer like next stop. ![]() Adeh2009: |
