Saudi Arabia condemned on Saturday the car-ramming in Munich that took place on Thursday.

The Saudi Foreign Ministry stressed its complete rejection of all forms of violence, underscoring its solidarity with Germany.

Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary-General Jasem Albudaiwi also slammed the attack, underling his solidarity with the German government and people.

He stressed the GCC countries’ firm rejection of all forms of violence, extremism and terrorism that target innocent lives and destabilize security.

The Muslim World League (MWL) strongly condemned the attack.

In a statement, Secretary General of the MWL and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars Sheikh Dr. Mohammed bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa expressed solidarity and sympathy with the people of Germany and the families of those affected by this heinous act. The MWL wished a speedy recovery to the injured.

A 37-year-old woman and her 2-year-old daughter died on Saturday from injuries they sustained when an Afghan national drove a car into a crowd in Munich on Thursday, German police said on Saturday, the first fatalities from the incident.

Prosecutors had said on Friday that at least 39 people were injured, some of them critically, when the car ploughed into trade union activists demonstrating for higher pay.
