They cannot be allowed to undermine peace and stability in Iraq,” he said.

According to reports, six of Prime Minister Kadhimi’s security guards were injured in the attack. “We express our concerns for the casualties caused by the attack and reiterate our support for the democratic process in Iraq,” Bagchi said, responding to media queries on the assassination attempt.
