“An investigation was immediately launched,” the police chief added, assuring that “every effort is being made to find the perpetrators of these heinous acts” (sic).

“I express all my support to the managers and worshippers of the mosques affected by these intolerable provocations,” Interior Minister Bruno Retayo wrote on his part in X.
