Jordanian security forces say they have killed four gunmen after flushing them out of a historic hilltop castle in the city of Karak.
The gunmen had fled to the castle after a shooting spree that left 10 people dead including a tourist from Canada and at least four police officers.
A Canadian tourist and four police officers have been killed in gun attacks in and near the Jordanian city of Karak, officials say.
Unidentified gunmen are reported to have taken refuge in an ancient castle in the city where several other tourists are said to be trapped.
Jordan’s Public Security Directorate said the gunmen first attacked a police patrol near Karak and then fled by car into the city, a BBC report has said.
