The Turkish Foreign Ministry on Saturday condemned Friday\'s deadly clashes between security forces and protesters in Egypt. \"We strongly condemn this serious and unacceptable incident. We are following with concern about the latest developments and the possibility that the casualties might increase,\" the ministry said in a statement. \"Resorting to violence and guns against peaceful protesters and opening fire against the (Egyptian) people have wounded the public \'s conscience,\" the statement said. \"It is clear that these sort of interventions, causing deaths, will not help Egypt\'s internal peace. Opening fire on demonstrators protecting their own democratic will is not acceptable with respect to human morality,\" it added. The statement also called on the Egyptian security forces to show more responsibility in the current process. \"The latest events at Rabaa al-Adawiya Square have shown the importance of allowing peaceful protests to take place. This attitude against civilian protests will not benefit the transition to democracy and is likely to cause unforeseeable consequences for all Egyptian people,\" the statement said.
