A Statement from the Head of the House of Romanoff on the Terrorist Attack in the Minsk Metro

From the Head of the Russian Imperial House, H.I.H. Grand Duchess Maria Wladimirovna

I was shocked by the news of the terrorist attack at the Minsk Metro. I am certain that the criminals will not go unpunished, and that the courts of both God and Man will condemn those who have perpetrated this horrific act.

I express my condolences to the relatives and friends of those who lost their lives.

I pray for the repose of the souls of the innocent victims and that the suffering of those wounded will soon be eased.

Maria
