Pakistan today condemned the attack on the Indian Consulate in Afghanistan's Herat province.

Foreign Office spokesperson Tasnim Aslam said Pakistan reiterates its condemnation of terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.

"No cause justifies targeting of diplomatic missions. It is a matter of relief that no one from the Consulate staff was hurt," she said in a statement here.

The attack comes at a time when India has extended invitation to Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to attend swearing-in ceremony of its new prime minister Narendra Modi.
