Cairo – The U.S. Embassy in Cairo has expressed strong condemnation of the recent terrorist attacks targeting security forces, police, and civilians, including Christian Egyptians, in the Sinai Peninsula and other regions of Egypt. These incidents highlight the stark contrast between the actions of terrorists and those of officers and civilians who risk their lives to protect others.
The embassy extended its "deep sympathies and condolences for those killed and injured by these recent attacks," also wishing a swift recovery for the injured.
In a statement reaffirming its support, the embassy declared that "the United States stands firmly with Egypt" and will continue to support Egypt's government and people in their fight against terrorism.
