"Such heinous acts of terror will never have a bearing on the Egyptian people's determination to stand fast against the evils of terrorism which fly in the face of all religious and human values and principles," said the ministry.
The Ministry reiterated the country's categorical denunciation of all forms of violence and terrorism which target all without distinction as to religion or ethnicity.
The Ministry concluded its statement by expressing the UAE's condolences to the leadership, government and people of Egypt, and the families of the victims, wishing a speedy recovery to those injured in the attack.
