Turkey Strongly Condemns Attacks In Egypt

ANKARA - Turkey strongly condemned yesterday's bomb attacks in Egypt.
Releasing a statement, the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Friday, ''we strongly condemn heinous acts of terrorism in Egypt which claimed lives of many people.''
The Ministry expressed Turkey's profound sorrow over loss of lives.
''Upon these acts of terrorism, which we consider a crime against humanity, we call on all regional countries to cooperate in fight against terrorism,'' it said.
The Ministry offered its condolences and implored God's strength upon all who are grieving for their beloved ones.
A string of bombs hit resorts popular with Israelis in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula yesterday, toppling a 10-story wing of a luxury hotel. At least 27 people were killed in the attack, and more than 100 others were injured.
