KUWAIT-- Kuwait on Tuesday strongly condemned the terrorist attack against a Church in the French southern suburbs of Rouen, Normandy, where a priest was killed by the attackers.

"This heinous crime, which is rejected by all faiths and laws, affirms anew how these terrorist groups target the security of mankind and stability of the world," a foreign ministry source said in a statement.

Kuwait, he affirmed, was in full solidarity with France's battle against these terrorist groups and supported the Paris government's measures to maintain the country's security and stability.

The source extended condolences for France and its people, and wished speedy recovery for the wounded.
