AMMAN, Jordan, Nov. 11 (UPI) -- Three students from China's University of National Defense were among the dead in Wednesday's bombings in Amman, Jordan, China Daily reported Friday.

The students were members of a delegation invited by the Royal Jordanian National Defense College on an academic exchange program, and had been staying at the Days Inn, one of the three hotels targeted by suicide bombers Wednesday.

The dead were identified as Sun Jingbo, 41, Zhang Kangping, 42 and Pan Wei, 44. A fourth delegate, Yao Liqiang, 42, suffered a broken leg.

The other 30 members of the delegation were transferred to a Jordanian military base pending their return to China. They had been scheduled to return home next Monday.

At least 57 people were killed, mainly Jordanians but also Palestinians, Iraqis, Saudis and one Indonesian as well as the Chinese. Up to 300 others were wounded in the blasts.
