Shafaq News/ The Iraqi government strongly condemned the recent terrorist bombings in the Iranian city of Kerman.
Government spokesman Bassem Al-Awadi expressed "Iraq's solidarity with Iran, its government, and people in the face of this tragic incident." He further stated that Iraq is ready to provide various forms of assistance to “alleviate the impact of this cowardly criminal act.”

Iranian state television said that at least 103 people had been killed and 211 others injured.
