Afghan President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani called Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to express condolences over Tuesday's terror attack in Pakistan, said a statement posted on the Afghan Presidential Palace website Wednesday.
"Mohammad Ashraf Ghani, president of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, via a telephone conversation offered his deepest condolences and sympathies to Pakistan Prime Minister Mohammad Nawaz Sharif on the recent terrorist attack in Peshawar," Xinhua quoted the statement as saying.
Offering sympathies and condolences on behalf of the government and people of Afghanistan, President Ghani said that "we share the pains and sufferings of Pakistan's people, and condemn in strongest possible terms this terrorist, brutal, non-Islamic and inhuman act", according to the statement.
An army-run public school in Pakistan's northwestern city of Peshawar was attacked Tuesday by militants and nearly 150 people, including 132 students, were killed.
