Turkish Foreign Ministry condemned the terrorist bomb attack at a hospital in southwest Pakistan Monday that left dozens of people dead.
The ministry in a written statement said Turkey felt great sadness over the killing of a large number of people and injury to dozens others in the terrorist attack in Balochistan province’s Quetta city.
At least 70 people were killed by a suspected suicide bomb attack at a hospital in southwestern Pakistan on Monday, according to a senior official. Balochistan Home Minister Safraz Bugti said 103 people were also injured.
The explosion hit moments after a group of lawyers brought in the body of colleague Bilal Kasi, the president of the Balochistan Bar Association, after he was shot dead by unknown assailants in Quetta earlier in the morning.
Turkish Foreign Ministry offered condolences to Pakistan.
