The Syrian Foreign and Expatriates Ministry vehemently condemned the crime committed by the armed terrorist gangs against the Egyptian army in Sinai which claimed a number of soldiers and injured many others, a foreign ministry source told SANA on Friday.
The repeated terrorist attacks targeting members of the Egyptian army clearly reveal the schemes plotted against the components of the forces which defend the sovereignty and independence of our Arab countries and their just causes, adding that this requires more unity among our countries to stand up to the threat of terrorism and extremism which allied with the enemies of our Arab Nation, the source further said.
"Our condemnation is stemmed from the fact that our people in Syria and Egypt stand in the same trench against Daesh terrorist organization and many other terrorist organizations," the source added.
The source expressed Syria’s sincere condolences to the martyrs’ families, stressing that joint war against terrorism and extremism is the guarantee for the future of Arab Nation, its strength and dignity.
