Jeddah (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 11th Feb, 2021) The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) condemns the series of bomb blasts, targeted killings and a surge of violence in Afghanistan in the past few days causing a number of casualties, including civilians and law enforcement personnel.
The OIC Secretary General, Dr. Yousef A. Al-Othaimeen, expressed his sincere condolences to the families of the victims and the government and people of Afghanistan, wishing the wounded speedy recovery.
The Secretary General called for an urgent cessation of violence, urged all parties to concentrate on peace efforts and to contribute towards achieving success at the inter-Afghan peace talks.
