Nations’ cooperation key vs terror–Loren
The cooperation among nations is the key in the global fight against terrorism, Sen. Loren Legarda said following recent attacks of terrorist groups, particularly in the cities of Paris, Beirut and Baghdad.
Legarda earlier joined the French nation and the rest of the world in condemning the Nov. 13 attacks on several public sites in and around Paris that have killed at least 129 individuals and injured hundreds more. But the senator, in a press statement, said ‘‘We should also give the same attention to other cities in the world that have been subjected to atrocities carried out by terrorist groups.’’
On Nov. 12, at least 41 people were killed in two suicide bombings in Beirut, Lebanon.
In Baghdad, Iraq, suicide blasts have been a regular occurrence, affecting many civilians. Among the more recent attacks are the suicide blast in a memorial service and roadside bombing also on Nov. 13.
