Al-Azhar lauds our Egyptian Armed Forces for their valor in countering and deterring the terrorist elements that seek to spread terrorism, cause destabilization and disperse the efforts of the Egyptian state at this critical time as our valiant soldiers could successfully thwart a terrorist attack on a security post in North Sinai yesterday.
Al-Azhar affirms that the courageous and decisive dealing by our Armed Forces with the attack carried out by the deviant and terrorist elements sends us a reassuring message as to the security of our dear homeland, and further inspires us to stand united behind our valiant Armed Forces in their war against terrorism.
Al-Azhar meanwhile mourns the heroic martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for the sake of homeland, asking the Allah, the Exalted, to admit them to Paradise and to bestow patience and solace upon their families and loved ones.
