Iran Saturday condemned an attack against a mosque in the Saudi eastern province of Qateef yesterday, which killed and wounded innocent people.
The “extremist and inhumane practices of terrorists who are killing people have created a tragic situation, which compels the international community to put an end to all financing of terrorits groups,” Marzieh Afkham, foreign ministry spokeswoman, said in a statement.
Five Saudis, including a woman, were killed and nine others wounded on Friday when a gunman opened machinegun fire near Al-Haidariya mosque in Sihat area, Qateef.
The international community should carry out “effective and influential” role against the terrorist groups, said Afkham.
She extended condolences for families of the victims.
Syrian troops backed by Hezbollah and Iranian fighters made advances on Saturday in their offensive to retake territory around the northern city of Aleppo from insurgents and jihadist fighters, a monitoring group said.
The campaign around Aleppo, which the army launched on Friday, is one of several assaults it has waged against rebel fighters since Russian jets began carrying out air strikes on Sept. 30 in support of President Bashar al-Assad.
It has concentrated so far on clearing rebel areas south of Aleppo rather than the city itself, which is home to 2 million people and divided between government forces and rebels.
