Your Excellency, dear Mr. President:<\/p>\n

It is with deep grief that I learnt of the bus crash in the south of Egypt that killed and injured dozens of people.<\/p>\n

The tragedy is even more dramatic because children are in the majority of victims. I express my profound sympathy to the near and dear of the victims and the injured. May God grant them spiritual courage and strength in enduring the trial that befell them.<\/p>\n

During these days the Russian Orthodox Church sincerely sympathizes with you and all people of Egypt.<\/p>\n
