Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi on Wednesday condemned Tuesday's bombing attack in Moscow which reportedly killed 10 people and injured 51. 

 

A female suicide bomber activated the bomb in a busy central Moscow metro station on Tuesday evening. 

 

"Killing innocent people is an immoral measure which runs against international norms and no pretext can justify it," Asefi said. He expressed sympathy over the incident and said, "The Islamic Republic of Iran is against any terrorist act." (albawaba.com)
