UN envoy condemns ‘cowardly’ bomb attacks in Sadr City
bomb attacks in Sadr City busy
Baghdad - Arab Today
The United Nations envoy for Iraq has strongly condemned the car bomb attack that occurred earlier Wednesday in a busy market in Sadr City, claiming many lives and leaving scores injured, the UN News Center reported.
“These are cowardly terrorist attacks on civilians who have done nothing but going about their normal daily lives,” said J?n Kubi?, Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Iraq, in a press release issued today by the UN Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI).
This latest attack comes after a car bomb was detonated on 9 May near a restaurant in Baquba, which also left large numbers of casualties.
“Such acts of terrorist violence are certainly against all the principles of decency and humanity, and as such must be strongly condemned,” Kubi? stressed.
“I call on the authorities to do their utmost to quickly bring the perpetrators to justice, and express my deepest condolences to the families of those who lost their lives and wish the injured a speedy recovery,” he added.

Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home.
