President Sergio Mattarella on Friday
sent US President Joe Biden his condolences over the deaths of
13 American soldiers in a terror attack at Kabul airport
Thursday.
"In this tragic circumstance our thoughts go above all to the
families of the victims, to whom I convey the sincere
condolences of the Italian Republic, and to the wounded, to whom
we wish a prompt recovery", he said.
"Rome remains firmly determined to combat, together with the
United States and its other international partners, all forms of
terrorism and fundamentalist violence, as well as to supply
humanitarian assistance to the friendly Afghan people, which
continues in these hours to pay a very high tribute of blood."
