The Sudanese government on Friday condemned the attack that struck Nice, France, regarding it as a terrorist act that has nothing to do with humanity.

"The ministry regards the attack as a cowardly terrorist act that has nothing to do with humanity," the statement said.

The ministry also expressed condolences to the French government and people and to the families of the victims.

It voiced rejection of all forms of terrorism, expressing full solidarity with the French government and the international community in fighting terror.
