China on Thursday condemned the two terrorist bomb blasts that hit the Algerian capital Algiers on Wednesday.

"China opposes any form of terrorism and condemns the twin blasts incident in Algeria. We express our profound condolences over the victims and offer sympathy and solicitude for families of the victims," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang said in a statement.

Two separate bombings, one of which targeted the prime minister's headquarters, shook Algiers earlier on Wednesday.

The blasts have caused 33 deaths so far, Algeria's Interior Minister Noureddine Yazid Zerhouni told press on Thursday.

On Tuesday, three suicide bombers blew themselves up one after another in Morocco's largest city Casablanca, killing at least one person and injuring dozens of others.

"We are shocked by the violent attacks in Algeria and Morocco and extended our condolences to families of those who died in the bombings," Qin said earlier Thursday at a regular briefing.
