Japan Foreign Minister Motegi Toshimitsu said he was shocked and deeply saddened by the report that six people including doctor Tetsu Nakamura were killed by a gun attack in Nangarhar Province, in eastern Afghanistan, on December 4.
“Japan expresses its sincere condolences to the families of the victims,” he said.
Doctor Nakamura has been making great contributions for the people of Afghanistan, providing them with medical care and irrigation systems. Yesterday’s heinous act of terrorism took place against such background. Japan resolutely condemns this act and hopes for the swift progress of the investigation by the Afghan authorities.
Japan remains committed to the peace and stability of Afghanistan in cooperation with the international community.
