JEDDAH, 27 July 2005 — The International Islamic Relief Organization, Saudi Arabia (IIROSA) denounced the terrorist attack on the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm El-Sheikh.

In a statement, IIROSA Secretary-General Dr. Adnan Khalil Basha said his organization strongly condemned the heinous crime.

“The killings and destruction committed by the deviant group is an indication of their deviation from the right path of religion. It shows that this group is engaged in aggression and aberration,” he said.

The explosions that ripped through the idyllic resort “targeted peaceful people and are not condoned by Islam,” Dr. Basha said.
