China expresses deep condolences over the death of students in the recent attack on an Iranian elementary school and sincere sympathy to their families, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said, Xinhua reports.

The Chinese Red Cross Society has decided to provide the Iranian Red Crescent Society with $200,000 in emergency humanitarian aid, Guo Jiakun added.

China condemns all indiscriminate attacks on civilians and non-military targets. Attacks on schools that harm children seriously violate international humanitarian law and cross the line of human morality and conscience, the spokesman noted.

"China is ready to continue providing Iran with necessary support, guided by the spirit of humanism, to help the Iranian people overcome difficulties," Guo Jiakun stated.
