Annan Concerned over Security in Iraq

United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan condemned Thursday two attacks in Iraq and reiterated his deep concern over the security conditions in the restive country.

Annan "strongly condemns both today's suicide bombing at a police station in Sadr city, Baghdad and the killing of Mr. Jose Antonio Bernal, a Spanish diplomat," UN spokesperson Hua Jiang told reporters.

The bombing in Sadr city killed nine people including the bomber.

Annan "is deeply saddened by the toll of dead and wounded arising from these murderous attacks," she said, adding that he conveyed his condolences to the families of the victims.

The UN chief "reiterates that all terrorist acts, from whatever quarter and whatever their justification, are morally repugnant and indefensible. He remains greatly concerned about the security situation in Iraq," she added.
