All my support for the Muslim community of #Bondy whose mosque was vandalized yesterday.
I hope that the perpetrators of this cowardly and senseless act will be quickly found and brought to justice.

The mayor LR of Bondy Stephen Hervé relayed the photos of the damage to the mosque where we see a broken French window and a damaged glass roof. Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin, in charge of worship, condemned “the unacceptable degradation that targeted (…) the Bondy mosque” and provided “support for Muslims in France” on his Twitter account.
The French Council for Muslim Worship (CFCM) for its part condemned “firmly the act of vandalism” and “expresses its total support for those in charge and the faithful of the mosque”.
