“The tragic accident of a passenger bus with a fuel tanker on Natanz-Kashan road that left a number of our dear citizens dead and injured caused great grief and sorrow for the Iranian nation”, he writes, adding, “I hereby offer my condolences to the bereaved families and ask the Almighty mercy for those who have lost their lives, patience for their bereaved families, and swift recovery for the injured.”
Rouhani also called for immediate and proper treatment of those injured and finding the cause of the accident.

In a separate message, First Vice President Es’hagh Jahangirin also condoled the death of citizens in the tragic event and called Road Ministry and Iran’s Police for careful investigation into the cause of the accident, along with adopting necessary measures for preventing such fatal incidents.
