Islamabad, December 04, 2022 (PPI-OT):We have seen reports that IS-KP has accepted responsibility for the terrorist attack on the Pakistan Embassy compound on 2 December 2022, said a press release issued by the Spokesperson of the Foreign Affairs. Independently and in consultation with the Afghan authorities, we are verifying the veracity of these reports.
This notwithstanding, the terrorist attack is yet another reminder of the threat that terrorism poses to peace and stability in Afghanistan and the region. We must act resolutely with all our collective might to defeat this menace. On its part, Pakistan remains steadfast in its commitment to combat terrorism.
