BLOODBATH IN JORDAN: Jihadis Screaming “Allahu Akbar” Storm Church, Kill Seven at Christian Funeral, Scores Wounded

‘First the Saturday people (the Jews), then the Sunday people.’ Min sallaf es-sabt lāqā el-ḥadd qiddāmūh.

On October 23, jihadis attacked the Hmoud church in Karak governorate during a service, killing at least seven people and injuring 34 to 40 others. King Abdullah II condemned the violence, vowing an iron-fist response and national unity, while visiting the wounded and declaring three days of mourning. Authorities launched a manhunt as the country reels from this shocking assault on its Christian community.

This is consistent with the genocide of Christians in Muslim lands.

Historically numbering in the hundreds of thousands across the Middle East and North Africa, Jewish populations in Muslim-majority countries have dropped to near-zero due to Muslim rule, antisemitic violence, and mass expulsions in the mid-20th century.
The Sunday People: refers to Christians (whose Sabbath/Day of Worship is Sunday) and warns historical patterns have mirrored, that after Jewish communities are driven out or eliminated, attention turns to native Christian populations, who have experienced a massive “silent exodus” and declining numbers in countries like Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Egyp

UST IN: Gunmen Shouting “Allahu Akbar” Kill Seven at Christian Funeral in Jordan

By Antonio Graceffo, Oct. 23, 2026:

Gunmen opened fire on mourners at a funeral at St. George’s Greek Orthodox Church in the village of Hmood, in Jordan’s Karak governorate, on October 23, 2026. Seven people were killed and 34 wounded, according to the director of Jordan’s Public Security Directorate.
A public security official told a news conference that the shooting was a terrorist attack against Christians attending a funeral. A witness told CNN that the gunmen shouted “Allahu Akbar” as they fired into the church courtyard, where most of the mourners were standing.

The funeral was for a woman from Hmood, a Christian village north of the city of Karak. A witness told state broadcaster Al-Mamlaka that between 150 and 200 people were inside and around the church when the attack began. Most of the victims were between 50 and 70 years old.

A member of the Halasah family told The National that three doctors were among those killed.

Survivors said they heard an explosion as the funeral procession began. Masked attackers then entered the church and fired for several minutes. The Public Security Directorate said the assailants got out of a vehicle and stormed the compound before opening fire.

Security camera footage aired by Al-Mamlaka showed three people shooting at the church from a sidewalk while sheltering behind trees and a low wall. Two of the gunmen carried pistols and the third carried a long gun.

Witnesses said the gunmen first fired at people outside the church and then toward the building’s entrance, which the footage showed them running toward. An eyewitness said the shooting continued for about five minutes before the attackers fled.
