ISIS claims responsibility for Jordan border attack last week

AMMAN- The extremist group Islamic State has claimed responsibility for a suicide attack last week that killed seven Jordanian troops and wounded 13 on the border with Syria.

 

The ISIS news agency Amaq posted a video of the attack on its Facebook page Monday. It shows a car racing through flat desert toward an army post, followed by an orange ball of fire rising in the air close to the installation. In a separate statement, Amaq said the attack was carried out by ISIS.

 

Jordan has said it would respond with an "iron fist" to the attack.
