IRNA � Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qasemi on Monday condemned the terrorist attack on a church in Quetta, Pakistan which claimed the lives of at least 8 people and injured 20 more.

�It was a cruel and blind act against innocent people,� Qasemi said sympathizing with bereaved families of the victims of the attack on Sunday.

�The remaining of defeated Takfiri-Zionist terrorists (Daesh) who have been supported by some regional and trans-regional countries now scattered around the region killing innocent people with any religion and ideology,� he said.

�They are trying to create terror among nations by launching blind, aimless and sporadic attacks in their post-defeat phase,� he added.

�Despite the fact that the biggest terrorist group in the world was annihilated by the regional countries� iron determination, their remains spare no effort in keeping alive the terrorist ideology to create chaos in the region and the world,� Qasemi reiterated.
