The Egyptian Foreign Ministry critcized Thursday the killing of American journalist James Folly by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, considering it a brutal incident that violates the teachings of Islam and human ethics.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Badr Abdel Aaty said the global community needs to unite to combat terrorism as a global phenomenon that does not target a specific country or region or is linked to a specific religion, but rather is a phenomenon that seeks to target the stability and security of the whole world.
