A Jordanian jihadist died on Wednesday of gunfire wounds he suffered as he tried to cross into the kingdom from war-torn Syria, a security official said. "Ahmad Fakhuri, a jihadist, was wounded by gunfire from the Syrian side as he tried to return to Jordan from Syria on Sunday night," the official told AFP. "He died in hospital today of wounds in the stomach and chest. Fellow jihadist Belal Feisal, who was wounded in the same shooting, is still in hospital." Home to more than half a million refugees from Syria, Jordan has tightened its northern border and detained scores of men, mostly jihadists, for entering the war-ravaged country or trying to go to fight alongside rebels.
