New Delhi
July 7, 2008

We convey with deep regret that there was a suicide car bomb attack on the Indian Embassy in Kabul a little while ago. We fear that there may be casualties among our personnel and are ascertaining full details. We are in touch with the Ambassador who is supervising arrangements for medical assistance. The Government of India strongly condemns this cowardly terrorists’ attack on its diplomatic mission in Afghanistan. Such acts of terror will not deter us from fulfilling our commitments to the Government and people of Afghanistan.
