The Farmers Syndicate decried the cowardly terror attack that claimed the life of Prosecutor General Hisham Barakat on Monday.

Terrorism will not stop the Egyptian people from achieving their development goals under the ruling of President Abdel Fattah el Sisi, the syndicate said in a press statement.

Egypt’s top prosecutor was killed after a highly explosive charge hit his motorcade earlier Monday in Nozha district of eastern Cairo.
