 India has unequivocally condemned, in the strongest terms, the inhumane and barbaric terrorist attack in Kabul yesterday.
External Affairs Ministry said, India stands ready to extend all possible assistance, including for treatment of those injured.
It said, what makes this attack particularly reprehensible is the fact that the terrorists and their backers chose the festive day of Nauroz to carry out their heinous act, with the attacker trying to target a group of innocent Afghans who were celebrating Nauroz.
The Ministry said, this is not only an attack on the Afghan people but also an attack on their identity and culture.
At least 31 people were killed and 65 injured in the attack, claimed by terror group Islamic State.
