Jordan strikes targets in Syria after deadly church attack

Jordan said on Monday its air force struck what it described as militant hideouts in southern Syria after determining that the suspects behind last week’s deadly church attack in ‌the kingdom were linked to “terrorist groups” operating there.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets focus on Jordan saying three suspects were arrested in connection with the church attack. CBS News foregrounds the official toll and identifies the target as a Greek Orthodox church, while Al Jazeera is alone in adding that the suspects allegedly refused to surrender, exchanged fire with security forces, and were wounded before arrest.
