Baghdad, 9 June 2017 – Special Representative of the United Nations Secretary-General for Iraq (SRSG), Mr. Ján Kubiš, strongly condemned today’s suicide bombing in Musayib District in northern Babel.

“The terrorists continue to disregard the Holy Month of Ramadan and continue to murder innocent people. This shows how cowardly they are,” SRSG Kubiš said.

“No matter what they do, the resolve of the Iraqi people will not wane and the terrorists will be defeated in the end,” he added.

“My condolences go the families of the victims and my wishes for a speedy recovery go to the wounded,” he further added.
