Both Iran and India condemned Pakistan over the act and sought steps on its behalf against terrorists.

As per a report in Tehran Times, Major General Baqeri said: "We have announced that if you are not able to counter [terrorists], we will take action and avenge the blood of our dear ones."

Iran has always accused Pakistan of failing to guard its borders with Iran. Islamabad though has rejected repeated calls by Iran for joint operations against terrorists based in Pakistan.
