Two Jordanian Soldiers Killed After Aid Truck Overturns

Two army officers were killed and another two were injured when three military trucks, part of a relief and humanitarian aid convoy heading to the Gaza Strip, were derailed off the Dead Sea Highway (southwest Amman) on Sunday, Petra reported.



An official military source at the General Command of the Jordan Armed Forces (JAF) – Arab Army said that the two martyrs are: Sergeant Imad Atta Aref Al-Aram and and Officer/2 Yahya Othman Yahya Al-Sayah, both from the Royal Supply and Transportation Directorate, the Jordan news agency stated.
