Manama, Aug.29 (BNA): The UAE Ambassador Abdul-Ridha Abdulla Khoury strongly condemned the terrorist blast which left one policemen dead last night in Karranah and seven innocent policemen and civilians wounded.

In a press statement today, he denounced the cowardly terrorist attack which, he said, contravenes the Islamic precepts and religious principles and international norms.

He affirmed that the terrorist act which targeted Bahrain’s security and stability would only make Bahraini people more resolved and united with their wise leadership to stave off all challenges.

The UAE envoy extended heartfelt condolences to the martyr of duty’s bereaved family and wished the wounded quick recovery, praying to Allah Almighty to protect Bahrain and its people from any harm and bless the Kingdom with lasting security and stability.
