ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - The members of United Nations Security Council have strongly condemned the heinous and cowardly terrorist attack on Jaffar Express in Pakistan’s Balochistan.

A press statement issued by the 15-member Council President for March, Ambassador Christina Markus Lassen of Denmark, the members expressed deepest sympathy and condolences to the families of the victims and wished a speedy and full recovery of injured.

“This reprehensible act of terrorism resulted in the grievous loss of at least 25 Pakistani nationals,” the Security Council statement said, noting that the Balochistan Liberation Army claimed that the attack was carried out by its Majeed Brigade.

The Statement said: “The members of the Security Council reaffirmed that terrorism in all its forms and manifestations constitutes one of the most serious threats to international peace and security.

The members of the Security Council underlined the need to hold perpetrators, organizers, financiers and sponsors of these reprehensible acts of terrorism accountable and bring them to justice. They urged all states, in accordance with their obligations under international law and relevant Security Council resolutions, to cooperate actively with the Government of Pakistan in this regard.
