The Moroccan Foreign Affairs Ministry has strongly condemned, in a statement released yesterday, “the crimes committed by terrorist groups against innocent people of all nationalities, faiths and professions, particularly in Iraq and Syria”.
The ministry highlighted that “these terrorist acts are contrary to Islam and violate the universal human values”.
The statement read the following:
“These terrorist acts run counter Islam teachings and are a blatant abuse of universal human values, said the ministry in a statement on Sunday.
“While expressing its strong condemnation of these cowardly terrorist acts and all crimes and other atrocities perpetrated by terrorist groups, Morocco underlined the need to pool efforts internationally to fight this phenomenon which threatens the security and stability of the international community, and said that the terrorism phenomenon should not be linked to any culture, civilization or religion,” the statement closed.
Worth mentioning that a dangerous cell acting on behalf of the so called “Islamic State” in the cities of Fez, Tetouan and Fnideq was recently dismantled and six Jihadists were arrested by the security services.
