The government extended its condolences to Kurdish leadership and citizens, praising the immense sacrifices that, alongside those of all Iraqis, contributed to building the current federal democratic system that ensures constitutional rights and dignity for everyone. It stressed the importance of continued sincere national effort to confront challenges and build a strong, fully sovereign state.
