First of all, I deem it necessary to express my genuine sympathy and my heartfelt condolences to the esteemed families of the dear victims and to ask Allah, the Exalted, to bestow patience, tranquillity and peace of mind on them. Secondly, I order that the General Staff of the Armed Forces pursue every case of possible negligence or error that may have been committed in this painful incident. Thirdly, I ask the managers and officials in charge to do everything in their power to prevent such incidents from recurring in the future.

May God, the Almighty and the Beneficent bestow His grace and mercy on the deceased, and may He shower patience and reward on their family members.
