Russian Foreign Ministry urges fight against real, rather than 'hybrid' threats in connection with Nice terror attack

MOSCOW. July 15 (Interfax) - The Russian Foreign Ministry has extended condolences to the families and friends of the Nice terror attack's victims.

"The mass murder in Nice is a thriller turned into reality. My condolences to the families of the victims, my support to the injured, especially those who are balancing between life and death," Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova wrote on Facebook on Friday.

She reiterated the need to fight real, rather than 'hybrid' threats.

"We should do this together; after all, we are so much alike when we die at the hands of terrorists and extremists. It is time to settle our disagreements before, not after such tragedies," Zakharova said.
