We strongly condemn the terrorist attack reported to be perpetrated by DAESH in Aden, Yemen and resulted in death of thirty-five people and injury of about fifty people according to initial reports.

We wish God’s mercy upon those who lost their lives in the attack, convey our condolences to their families and the brotherly people of Yemen and wish a speedy recovery to the wounded.

Turkey, which takes a determined stance against DAESH and other terrorist organizations and was exposed to the heinous atrocity of terrorism once again in Istanbul last night, stands by the brotherly people of Yemen in fight against terrorism.
