The Arab League strongly condemned the attack that targeted a beach in the Somali capital, Mogadishu, which resulted in dozens of deaths and injuries.
Secretary-General of the Arab League, Ahmed Aboul Gheit said in a statement on Sunday, that, through this attack, the armed groups aim to weaken the federal government in Somalia and spread terror among civilians.
Aboul Gheit stressed the Arab League's consistent solidarity with Somalia in combating any threats to its security and stability, or works to undermine the progress achieved by the Somali government at all levels.
An armed group from the Somali Al-Shabaab movement, loyal to Al-Qaeda, resulted in a number of deaths and injuries yesterday after attacking Lido Beach in the Abdalaziz district of the capital, Mogadishu.
