The Iranian Foreign Ministry condemned the kidnapping of 12 nuns by the terrorists in Syria, and called for their immediate freedom, according to FNA.
Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Marziyeh Afkham condemned terrorists’ attack on Syria’s Maaloula village, kidnapping 12 nuns of Mar Takla Monastery, and asked for the immediate and unconditional release of the innocent nuns.
“Beyond doubt these moves are made aimed at intriguing civil sedition in Syria and sectarian strife among the followers of the divine faiths that have been peacefully coexisting side by side of each other peacefully for centuries,” Afkham said on Wednesday night.
She asked the international and regional organizations to perform their humanitarian duties immediately and block the path for the occurrence of repeating any aggressive move and criminal act against the innocent Syrian nation.
