Arab Inter-Parliamentary Union chief and Kuwait's National Assembly Speaker Marzouq Al Ghanim late on Wednesday condemned the terrorist attacks that killed dozens of Egyptian soldiers in the Sinai Peninsula, said the Kuwaiti News Agency.

"These attacks, which targeted the security and stability of Egypt, are utterly rejected and deplored," he said, expressing solidarity with the country in its fight on terror.

Ghanim went on to express his condolences to the families and loved ones of those killed in the attacks and to the Egyptian people, whilst wishing those injured a swift recovery.
