Senior Iranian diplomat Nasser Kan’ani made the remarks while speaking at his weekly press conference on Monday morning.
Two terrorist blasts occurred en route to the Kerman martyrs’ cemetery and the burial site of the former Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Qods Force commander General Qassem Soleimani who was assassinated by the US forces in Iraq on January 3, 2020. Dozens of people were killed and injured in the terrorist incident.
“Once again, we strongly condemn this cowardly act of terrorism in the strongest terms. I offer my condolences to the families of the martyrs, both Iranian and Afghan,” Kan’ani cited, thanking the countries who expressed sympathy toward the Iranian nation following the tragedy.
Terrorism is a threat to international peace and security and all countries and nations, he said, adding that those who use terrorism to reach their sinister goals should be held accountable.
