Without a doubt, today‘s terrorist attacks in Tehran will further strengthen the Islamic Iran‘s resolve in its combat against regional terrorism, extremism and violence more than before. Iran‘s message, like always, has been that terrorism is a universal problem and unity in fighting extremism, violence and terrorism with regional and international cooperation is the most important need of today‘s global community.

I hereby express my condolences to the bereaved families who lost their loved ones in these terrorist attacks during the month of God‘s feast, asking the Almighty the highest places for the martyrs, patience and reward for the bereaved families and swift recovery for the injured.

It is obvious that the powers, organs and security organisations will not abandon attempt until all aspects of the insensitive action and their overt and covert supporters are identified.

Hassan Rouhani

President of the Islamic Republic of Iran
