The Government conveys its sincere condolences to the families of the victims, as well as to the authorities and people of Kenya.

Spain expresses its repugnance at these hateful crimes carried out by the Somali terrorist gang al-Shabaab in an attempt to do away with the peaceful co-existence of communities in Kenya. Spain opposes any act that seeks to incite inter-religious hatred.

These regrettable acts are yet one more example of the need for regional and international cooperation in the fight against terrorism and radicalisation. Spain reiterates its interest in continuing its cooperation with the Kenyan authorities and the rest of the international community in the fight against terrorism and to help make the Horn of Africa a more stable, prosperous and safer region.
