KARACHI: Pakistan People’s Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari Sunday strongly condemned the bomb blast in Kabul that left at least 100 people dead and over 200 injured.
“Our hearts go out to the victims and their families of the deadly bomb and the pain of our Afghan brothers and sisters is also felt deeply by the people of Pakistan,” the PPP chairman added. Bilawal said that terrorism had become a global scourge and it could only be controlled through well-coordinated international efforts instead of dictations by contemporary powerful countries. Separately, the PPP chairman has congratulated the national cricket team on winning T20 series against New Zealand and reclaiming the top-ranking in the world. In a message to Pakistani skipper Sarfaraz Ahmed, the PPP chief appreciated the teamwork of the national squad in the series to fetch a fabulous 2-1 victory against New Zealand.
