"The Foreign Ministry condemns the attack that took place today at the Notre-Dame Church in the French city of Nice. The Ministry rejects all kinds of terrorism and violence, against which our true religion calls to fight and eliminate," the statement said. An investigation has been opened into the knife attack that has left at least three dead and several others injured on Thursday morning, according to France's national anti-terrorism prosecutor's office. France has been on high alert after a knife attack near the former office in central Paris of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo on Sept. 25 and the beheading of a history teacher outside a middle school in Paris suburbs on Oct. 16.
