Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday sent a condolence message to his Philippine counterpart, Rodrigo Duterte, over the blasts in the southern Philippines.
In the message, Xi said he was shocked to learn of the two serious attacks inside and near the entrance of a Roman Catholic church on the island of Jolo in the southern Philippine province of Sulu that have caused heavy casualties.
On behalf of the Chinese government and people, as well as in his own name, Xi deeply mourned the deceased and sent sincere condolences to their families and the injured.
