KABUL, Afghanistan – ISAF joined Afghan President Hamid Karzai in condemning a roadside bomb attack which resulted in the deaths of 25 Afghans in Southern Afghanistan yesterday.
The incident occurred Wednesday morning when a bus loaded with Afghan civilians struck an insurgent placed IED in Nimroz Province.
“The criminals who did this are the enemies of Muslims,” President Karzai said in a statement following the attack.
“We stand resolute with President Karzai in condemning this appalling attack on innocent Afghans,” said ISAF Commander General David Petraeus. “This only serves to highlight the insurgency’s continued disregard for the safety of civilians.”
ISAF, working with its Afghan partners, will pursue those responsible for such acts of terrorism and remains dedicated to minimizing civilian casualties as it conducts security operations throughout Afghanistan.
