AMMAN, Jordan, March 2 (UPI) -- Jordanian authorities said they have arrested three terror suspects, disrupting an al-Qaida plan to attack "a vital civilian installation."
The Jordan Times, quoting the official Petra news agency, said four kilograms of heavy explosives were also seized.
The three were identified as Libyan Mohammad Saeed Hamad Gheith Darsi, and Iraqis Mohsen Mazloum Jassam Lousi and Abdul Karim Khudeir Ibrahim Abbas.
Authorities were also trying to track down a Saudi national and three other Iraqis involved in the planning of the attack. The four were said to be in an unidentified neighboring country.
Additional details were not disclosed. But authorities did say the explosives seized were of the same type as that used in the Nov. 9 bombings of hotels in Amman that killed 60 people.
