KABUL, Afghanistan - The International Security Assistance Force joins President Karzai in condemning yesterday's brutal attack on government facilities in Farah province that killed at least 40 people and injured dozens more.

"We stand with the Afghan leadership in condemning this brutal assault on the courthouse in Farah, which killed many Afghan civilians," said Gen. Joseph F. Dunford, the ISAF commander. "Innocent civilians and public servants were killed and injured because of the insurgency's indiscriminate use of suicide attacks and small arms fire. We offer our deepest condolences to the families of those killed and injured yesterday and implore the insurgency to stop attacking innocent civilians."
