Three U.S. servicemembers were killed in a shootout Friday at the gates of an air base in southern Jordan, the military said, a U.S. official told Fox News. The shots were fired as a car carrying the trainers tried to enter the al-Jafr base near the southern Jordanian town of Mann, said the military. “Initial reports were that one (servicemember) was killed, two injured," the official said. Last November, a Jordanian police captain opened fire in an international police training facility, killing two Americans and three others. For the West, any sign of instability in Jordan, a key ally, would be of great concern.
