Secretary-General condemns attack at Yemeni tourist site |
| Theallineed.com |
2 July 2007 – Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has strongly condemned today's suicide car bombing near a popular tourist site in Yemen that claimed the lives of nine people, declaring that no cause can justify such acts of indiscriminate violence against civilians.
"The Secretary-General is appalled by the killing today of seven Spanish tourists and two Yemeni nationals, and the wounding of eight other people, in a suicide car bombing near an archaeological site in the province of Marib in Yemen," said his spokesperson in a statement.
According to media reports, the bomb went off as the visitors were finishing a tour of the site which contains a temple built 3,000 years ago at the time of the Queen of Sheba.
Mr. Ban also extended his deepest condolences to the families of the victims, as well as to the Governments and people of Yemen and Spain.
