Jordan carries out deadly strike in Syria in retaliation for church attack
The attack on a village in Syria killed five people, including women and children, Syrian health officials said.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on Jordan saying three suspects were arrested in connection with the church attack. CBS News foregrounds the official toll and identifies the target as a Greek Orthodox church, while Al Jazeera is alone in adding that the suspects allegedly refused to surrender, exchanged fire with security forces, and were wounded before arrest.
