The governor in the first day of Eid visited, Friday, the families of some victims , and pledged to reconstruct a house gravely damaged where one of the four victims were killed. The opposition parties reacted differently to the airstrike on the military factory. Sadiq Al-Mahdi, leader of the largest opposition Umma National Party denounced the attack saying that despite their differences with the regime but they reject any aggression against the mother country. "With regard to the issues of the nation we are all in the same trench, and this must be clear." he further said.
