AMMAN -- A defense attorney says five Syrians with alleged ties to the extremist Islamist State group have pleaded not guilty to charges they participated in a cross-border attack that killed seven Jordanian border guards last year.

 

The trial opened Wednesday in Jordan's state security court. If convicted, the defendants could face the death penalty.
