RIYADH: The French Embassy here has opened an electronic condolence book for people in the Kingdom to sympathize with the victims of the terror attacks in Paris.

An embassy official thanked those who had already expressed their sympathies, and said the condolence book would allow for messages in Arabic, English and French.

In response to a question, he said there had not been any security alert issued to French citizens living in the Kingdom. However, the mission would monitor the situation and keep its nationals aware of developments, he said.

The French government has tightened security at all its borders, but flights from the Kingdom to Paris and other cities would continue as normal.

“There are no changes in visa policies and the missions in Riyadh and Jeddah would continue issuing visas as usual to Saudis and expatriates,” 0he said.
