(Eagle News) — The Department of Foreign Affairs said no Filipino was affected in the attack near a mosque in London that killed one and injured ten people.
Even then, the DFA said the embassy in London was “monitoring” the situation, noting that it “stands ready to offer assistance” to those affected by the attack near Finsbury Park mosque on June 19.
“(The Philippine embassy in London) calls on the Filipino community to reach out with any information on kababayans possibly affected by this attack,” the DFA said.
The DFA also condemned the “appalling attack,” saying it “stands against the shared values of the Philippines and the (United Kingdom) as peace-loving and tolerant societies that respect all religions.”
“The Philippines expresses its condolences and sympathy with the victim, the injured, and their families, and reaffirms its solidarity with the (UK) in the fight against terrorism and all its forms,” the DFA said.
