Jordanian Community in Washington Gathers in Solidarity Following Karak Terrorist Attack

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 (Petra) – Members of the Jordanian community in
the Greater Washington Area gathered at the Jordanian Embassy on
Saturday evening in a display of national unity and solidarity to
condemn the terrorist attack that targeted Karak Governorate on
Friday.

Jordanian Ambassador to the United States, Dina Kawar, alongside
embassy staff, received the attendees during a candlelight vigil held
to honor the victims and express sympathy with their families and the
Jordanian public.

The gathering follows a terrorist attack that targeted a church in
Hmoud village in Karak Governorate on Friday, resulting in nine
fatalities and leaving 34 individuals injured.

Participants emphasized that the community initiative reflects the
enduring ties connecting Jordanians at home and abroad, as well as
their firm alignment behind the Hashemite leadership of His Majesty
King Abdullah II, stressing that terrorism will not compromise
Jordan’s security, stability, or values of coexistence.
