China condemns Kabul's twin suicide attacks

Xinhua, September 6, 2016 Adjust font size:

China condemns twin suicide attacks near the Afghan defense ministry on Monday, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson said on Tuesday.

Two dozen people have lost their lives and more than 90 were injured, according to Afghan Public Health Ministry.

"We extend our condolences to the victims and express our sympathy to the wounded and the families of the victims," spokesperson Hua Chunying said, stressing that China opposes terrorism in any form.

China regards the process of Afghan-led and Afghan-owned reconciliation as an ultimate way out for the Afghan issue, Hua said.

As a friendly neighbor of Afghanistan, China hopes that Afghanistan will realize peace, stability and development at an early date, Hua said. Endit
