Rabat - Morocco strongly condemned the terrorist attack targeting its embassy in Tripoli and called on Libyan authorities to open an investigation to determine the circumstances of such criminal aggression.
The Kingdom of Morocco expressed "deep concern and firm condemnation of this terrorist act that represents a blatant violation of international law and diplomatic norms relating to respecting and guaranteeing the inviolability of diplomatic missions," the foreign ministry said in a statement.
Following this attack Morocco "calls on the Libyan authorities to conduct an inquiry in order to determine the circumstances of this cowardly criminal attack and its perpetrators," the statement added.
In the statement, Morocco reiterated its solidarity with Libya in this transition period and reaffirmed support to political dialogue under the auspices of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) between the Libyan political stakeholders in order to achieve the Libyan people’s aspirations to stability, peace and prosperity.
The main gate of the Moroccan embassy in Tripoli was targeted early on Monday by a bomb attack that exploded without claiming victims but left material damage in neighboring buildings.
