United Nations (Antara/Xinhua-OANA) - UN Secretary-General Ban Ki- moon condemned Monday the terrorist attack in Cairo, the Egyptian capital, earlier in the day that killed Egyptian Prosecutor General Hisham Barakat and injured a number of civilians.
The Secretary-General called for those responsible for the attack to be brought to justice, according to a statement released by Ban's spokesperson.
Barakat (65) has been seriously wounded in the bomb attack and was taken to a hospital in Cairo where he got a sensitive surgery after which he breathed his last.
Nine other people were injured in the blast that targeted the country's top prosecutor.
The bombing came after Sinai-based Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis militant group, an affiliate of the Islamic State regional militant group, posted a video clip on Monday supposedly showing attacks in May that killed two judges and a prosecutor.(*)
