Damascus censures terror attack perpetrated by ISIS in Kuwait
Damascus has strongly condemned the terror attack that ripped through a mosque in Kuwait.
It described the terror act as a ‘coward’ act coming within the terrorist war being launched against the Arab and Islamic nations in particular and the world peoples in general.
In a statement released today by Foreign and Expatriates Ministry, Syria called for unifying international efforts to counter terrorism.
” Syria, which is suffering from barbaric terrorist attacks at the hands of ISIS, al-Nusra Front, Jaish al-Fateh and other terrorist organizations, has warned against the threat of terrorism, which is receiving support from the Saudi and Qatari regimes and Erdogan’s government amid international silence,” the ministry said.
It called for organized and calculated international efforts to counter terrorism.
The ministry said that Syria offers the sincerest condolences to the people of Kuwait and prays for the souls of the martyrs killed in the attack inside the Mosque.
A suicide bomber killed at least 27 people and wounded 202 others when he blew himself up inside the ‘Imam al-Sadeq’ Mosque in Kuwait city during Friday prayer.
ISIS named the bomber as Abu Suleiman al-Muwahed in a statement posted on social media.
