The US and UK on Wednesday condemned a suicide attack in Pakistan that killed 42 Pakistani soldiers. “We extend our deepest condolences to the families and friends of those killed and injured in this heinous attack,” said White House National Security Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe. “We applaud the Pakistani government’s determination and resolve to fight against terror. We stand with the government and people of Pakistan in this struggle,” he said. British foreign minister Kim Howells said there could be “no justification” for the suicide bomb attack. Howells said in a statement: “There can be absolutely no justification for this cowardly attack which has resulted in the deaths of so many. “I wish to send our heartfelt condolences to Pakistan.” |
