The Coordination Council of former Afghan Diplomatic Missions has strongly condemned the recent armed attack in Herat province. In a published statement, the council described the deadly assault as a deeply concerning and targeted act of violence against religious minorities.
The attack, which targeted a gathering of Shia civilians, resulted in multiple casualties, including women and children. The diplomats emphasized that this tragedy poses a severe threat to the security of vulnerable communities and highlights an alarming trend of escalating violence.
The council has urgently called on the United Nations to conduct an independent investigation into the incident. They warned that marginalizing minority groups fosters hatred and discrimination within society, and they strongly demanded immediate measures to protect all religious sites.
