The attack during the midday service at Bethel Memorial Methodist Church was a targeted assault on the minority Christian community just a week before Christmas
I am heartbroken by the senseless terrorist attack and the loss of lives and horrific injuries to so many innocent people after two suicide bombers attacked a packed church who had gathered for Sunday service.
Such kind of terrorism must be eliminated and their groups overthrown. I strongly condemn this barbaric terrorism, which serves no purpose but to bring sorrow and grief.
I extend my heartfelt prayers to the injured and the families of the deceased.
