TEHRAN: Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Shamkhani has condemned a deadly attack  on a police training academy in Quetta. In a message to his Pakistani counterpart, Shamkhani denounced the terrorist attack and expressed sympathy to the families of the victims as well as the Pakistani government and nation.

“The terrorist attack on a police academy and the killing of dozens of young police forces is a sign of unbridled growth of terrorism and extremism across the region,” he regretted.

Shamkhani called on countries in the region to work together to attack terrorism at its roots,  “regardless of unnecessary political considerations.”“I express my deepest condolences to your Excellency, to the Pakistani government and nation, and  to the bereaved families of those killed in this event, and I pray for a speedy recovery for the injured of the bitter event,” the message read.
