The Islamic Republic of Iran condemns such heinous acts of terrorism and will spare no effort in pursuing justice for the victims of this incident, Iravani said.

The Islamic Republic of Iran asks the Secretary-General and the UN Security Council to immediately and unequivocally condemn this terrible terrorist attack, he added.
