JAKARTA - Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed his condolences for the two bombings in Iran's Kerman City, which killed 84 people.
"Please accept our deepest condolences for the tragic impact of the terrorist attack in the city of Kerman. The killing of civilians who visited the cemetery was shocking because of the cruelty and cynicism," Putin said in Telegram as reported by ANTARA from Anadolu, Thursday, January 4.
The Telegram is addressed to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and President Ebrahim Raisi.
Putin prayed that all the injured victims as a result of the bombing would recover quickly.
"We strongly condemn terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, and reaffirm our commitment to carry out our uncompromising struggle against this crime," he said.

There were two devastating explosions that hit the city in southeastern Iran on Wednesday. The explosion occurred in the vicinity of the funeral of former Iranian military commander General Qassem Soleimani.
Thousands of people gathered there to commemorate Soleimani's four-year death, the former head of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Forces, who died in a US drone strike in Baghdad in January 2020.
The cause of the explosion is still being investigated by a number of security agencies. So far no group has claimed responsibility for the deadliest attack in Iran's history after 1979.
