Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Mofa) Spokesperson Aisha Farooqui issued a statement on Mofa official Facebook account.

“Pakistan strongly condemns the heinous terrorist attack on a Gurdwara in Kabul that has resulted in the loss of precious lives and injuries to several worshippers. Such despicable attacks have no political, religious or moral justification and must be rejected outright.”

The spokesperson said, “Our hearts go out to the families who have lost their loved ones in this inhuman act and we pray for the swiftest recovery of the injured.”

Pakistan expressed the abiding solidarity with the fraternal people of Afghanistan, she said.

The statement read: “Pakistan condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. All places of worship are sacrosanct and their sanctity must be respected at all times.”
