Al-Azhar Condemns Terrorist ISIS’s Attack on a Football Pitch in Kirkuk

Al-Azhar strongly condemns the terrorist attack that targeted a football pitch in the Dakuk district of Kirkuk in the north of Iraq earlier on Sunday, which left 6 persons killed and 10 others injured.

Al-Azhar stresses that this brutal terrorist attack, which contradicts all the Islamic and human principles and that led to the murder and injury of many innocent civilians including children, conclusively proves the weakness of these deviant, brutal movements.

Al-Azhar, meanwhile, offers its sincere solace to the victims’ families and to the government and people of the Iraq, asking Allah, Most High, to shower the victims with His Endless Mercy, to grant their relatives patience and to grant speedy recovery for the injured.
