Brussels - Arab Today
The European Union has condemned Monday's explosion in Russia's St. Petersburg metro which has so far killed at least 14 people.
"Our thoughts go out to the people of Russia, and in particular to those who have lost loved ones in today's explosion in the Saint Petersburg metro. We wish a swift recovery to those who have been injured," a statement by the spokesperson of the European External Action Service said.
"The European Union condemns in the strongest possible terms all acts of violence," it added.
