The UAE has strongly condemned a terrorist attack at a ceremony in Iran to commemorate commander Qassem Soleimani, killing nearly 100 people and wounding scores more.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) said the UAE expressed its strong condemnation of all forms of violence and terrorism aimed at undermining security and stability and shared condolences and sympathy to the families of the victims.
They also wished all those injured a speedy recovery.
Iranian state television reported two explosions, within 20 minutes, during a crowded fourth-anniversary event on Wednesday at the cemetery where Soleimani is buried in the southeastern city of Kerman.
No one has claimed responsibility for the blasts so far.
