Syrian interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa vows that those involved in a suicide attack on a Damascus church yesterday will face justice, calling for unity after the “heinous” attack.
“We promise… that we will work night and day, mobilizing all our specialized security agencies, to capture all those who participated in and planned this heinous crime and to bring them to justice,” Sharaa says in a statement.
The attack “reminds us of the importance of solidarity and unity of the government and the people in facing all that threatens our nation’s security and stability,” he adds.
