Secretary Clinton condemns the bombings in Uganda that took place while people were watching the World Cup final yesterday:
I join President Obama in strongly condemning today’s attacks in Kampala, Uganda targeting innocent spectators watching the World Cup final.
We understand that American citizens may have been injured or killed and our embassy is reaching out to assist. Our condolences go out to the families and friends of the victims, in the United States and Uganda.
At this tragic moment, the United States stands with Uganda. We have a long-standing, close friendship with the people and Government of Uganda and will work with them to bring the perpetrators of this crime to justice.
In the photo above, taken just moments after the bombings yesterday, survivors look frightened and dazed at an Ethiopian restaurant, one of the sites of the bombings.
