He mentioned that there would be an economic downturn as a result of the attacks.
The Prime Minister assured that those responsible will be severely dealt with. “We have ordered the police and intelligence services to carry out impartial investigations.
Those who are responsible for the attacks will be severely dealt with,” he added
