China on Monday strongly condemned an attack on the Russian embassy in Damascus, and urged all sides in Syria to protect the safety of foreign diplomats.
“We are seriously concerned, and extend condolences to those injured,” said Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hong Lei at a regular press briefing.
Hong was reacting to the mortar shell attack on Sunday, which left three Russian diplomats injured.
A mortar shell landed in the compound of the Russian embassy in Mazzeh in central Damascus, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on Sunday.
