His Highness the Amir voiced Kuwait's strong condemnation of the heinous criminal act that targeted innocents, and the unity of the Egyptian people, running contrary to all heavenly faiths and human values.

Offering condolences to families of the blast victims, His Highness the Amir wished those wounded in the attack speedy recovery.

His Highness the Crown Prince Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah and His Highness the Prime Minister Sheikh Jaber Mubarak Al-Hamad Al-Sabah sent two similar cables of condolences to the Egyptian President.
