France condemns Yemen suicide attack

France has condemned Sunday's terrorist attack in Yemen's Mukalla city which killed several police officers and left dozens injured.

In a statement, French Foreign Ministry spokesman Roman Nadal offered condolences to the families of the victims and expressed solidarity with Yemen in combating terrorism. 

Nadal affirmed France's full support for efforts exerted by UN Special Envoy to Yemen Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed.

He called on all Yemeni parties to strengthen the current ceasefire and facilitate the entry of humanitarian aid.

A suicide bombing claimed by Daesh terrorists and a second attack killed 37 police officers on Sunday in Mukalla where a year of Al Qaeda rule ended last month.
