Gulf Cooperation Council condemns suicide bombing of Danish embassy in Islamabad

By Xinhua,

Riyadh : The Cooperation Council for the ArabStates of the Gulf (GCC) Monday condemned the suicide bombing of the Danish embassy in the Pakistani capital Islamabad.

Calling the attack an immoral violation against humans, a GCC statement said the bombing goes against the Islamic creed, which advocates tolerance.

The GCC firmly opposes terrorism in all forms, said the statement, calling for respect for human rights and humanitarianism.

The statement also says terrorism should not be stereotypically linked with a certain religion or a group of people.

The Danish embassy in Islamabad was closed after the attack killed at least eight people and injured 24 others earlier Monday.

The GCC, headquartered in the Saudi capital, groups the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
