Italians killed in “madness” of Dhaka attack: Italian PM
Italian prime minister Matteo Renzi condemned on Saturday a deadly attack in Dhaka where gunmen stormed into a cafe and killed 20 foreigners inside, including some Italians.
“Facing the tragedy of radical Islam, Italy is united and ... will not back-track in the face of the madness of those who want to destroy the life we live every day,” Renzi told a news conference in Rome.
Renzi declined to give any details of the number of the Italians killed in Friday’s night’s attack, or the circumstances of their deaths.
At least seven Italians had been held hostage inside the cafe, Italian officials say, though there are unconfirmed media reports that as many as 10 were held hostage.
