ISLAMABAD, July 31 (Xinhua) -- Pakistan on Wednesday condemned the bomb attack on a passenger bus in Afghanistan's capital Kabul that left scores of people killed and injured, the Foreign Ministry said here.

Extending heartfelt condolences to the families of the blast victims, the ministry said the hearts of the people of Pakistan go out to the innocent victims, many of them women and children.

"Such inhuman acts of violence against innocent civilians are condemnable. Pakistan condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations," the foreign office said.

Afghan people deserve complete peace and tranquility in their country. Pakistan stands together with the government and people of Afghanistan in the efforts to comprehensively defeat and uproot the scourge of terrorism in the region, the statement said.

At least 34 people were killed and 17 others wounded in a long-distance bus crash in Afghanistan's western Farah province on Wednesday, a local official confirmed.

"The accident occurred following an explosion when a pressure-plate landmine struck the ill-fated bus, causing it to veer off road and overturn along a main road in Aab Khorma locality of Farah Wednesday morning," the provincial official told Xinhua anonymously.
