Moussa expressed his condolences to the families of the victims and to the Indian government and people, noting that such terrorist attacks aggravate the vicious circle of violence.
Meanwhile, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak issued a presidential statement on Thursday denouncing the terrorist attacks.
Mubarak offered his condolence to the families of the victims and said Egypt will stand by the side of India in countering terrorism and extremism, said the statement.
On Wednesday, groups of gunmen stormed luxury hotels, a popular restaurant, a crowded train station and a Jewish center in Mumbai, killing at least 101 people.
The gunmen also held Westerners hostage in coordinated attacks on India's commercial center.
All hostages at Taj Hotel have been rescued, but there could still be some people trapped at Trident Hotel and Nariman House where operations were on to flush out militants, Maharashtra police chief A N Roy said Thursday.
