Tehran [Iran], August 9 : The Iranian Foreign Ministry in a statement has marked the killing of Iranian diplomats in Afghanistan in 1998 as a "bitter and unforgettable" atrocity, reported The Khaama News Agency on Tuesday.
Speaking on its anniversary, the Iranian Foreign Ministry urged Aghanistan's interim Taliban administration to provide more details of the incident that claimed the lives of eight Iranian diplomats and a journalist in Mazar-i-sharif.
As per The Khaama News Agency, Iran has declared August 8 as Nationa Reporter Day as on this day the Taliban stormed the Iranian consulate in Mazar-i-sharif.
