CAIRO, July 14 (Xinhua) -- The Arab League (AL) condemned on Sunday the recent deadly terrorist attack on a hotel in Somalia that left tens of people dead and wounded, the Cairo-based pan-Arab body said in a statement.

"The AL reiterates its full solidarity with the people and government of Somalia in their confrontation of the threat represented in Al-Shabaab terrorist movement and supports all the measures they take to maintain security and stability all over Somalia," AL Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul-Gheit said in the statement.

Egypt also expressed rejection of the terror attack on the hotel in Somalia, according to a statement released on Sunday by the Egyptian Foreign Ministry.

"Egypt will continue its support for the Somali federal government to rebuild the state institutions and achieve security and stability in Somalia," said the Egyptian statement.

On Saturday, at least 26 people were killed and 56 others injured in a deadly terrorist attack at a hotel in the Somali port town of Kismayo.

According to a former UN report, the armed conflict in Somalia due to Al-Shabaab's rebellion has left more than 2,000 people dead and over 2,500 wounded from January 2016 to October 2017.
