Press Release - Statement by National Security Council Spokesperson Ned Price on the Terrorist Attacks in Baghdad, Iraq

July 03, 2016

The United States strongly condemns ISIL's heinous terrorist attacks in Baghdad last night that killed over 100 people, including families gathering to break their Ramadan fast and those joining millions around the world in watching the Euro Cup. We remain united with the Iraqi people and government in our combined efforts to destroy ISIL. These attacks only strengthen our resolve to support Iraqi security forces as they continue to take back territory from ISIL, just as we continue to intensify our efforts to root out ISIL's terrorist network and leaders.
