We follow the news from Soma with deep regret. We wish God's mercy upon those who lost their lives, convey our heartfelt condolences to their families and wish speedy recovery for those wounded. We pray for the reunion of the workers that are currently held up in the mines with their beloved families in due time. A national mourning will be observed in our country as well as representations abroad for the duration of three days and our flag will fly at half-mast.
