JEDDAH — Ibrahim Jawdat El Ziq, UN resident coordinator in the Kingdom, has strongly condemned the recent heinous and cowardly terrorist attacks perpetrated in Qatif, Jeddah and Madinah. The terror attack in Madinah near the Prophet's Mosque resulted in the death of four security personnel. Daesh (the so-called IS) terror network claimed responsibility for the attack. Dr. El-ziq drew attention to the statement of the Security Council condemning the attacks. He expressed his deep sympathy and extended condolences to the families of the victims, to the people and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, wishing speedy and full recovery to the injured.
