“The Government of Nepal strongly condemns the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir today (Thursday) that has resulted in the loss of many precious lives,” the release from Nepal’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs put forth late Thursday.
The release further outlined that any kind of heinous act of terrorism cannot be justified, reinforcing Nepal’s stand against such kind of manifestations.
