'We should not and will not rest until those behind terror in Istanbul, Dhaka, and now Baghdad, and their ideology are defeated,' Mohammad-Javad Zarif said in a Twitter post.

The comments by Zarif came today, as the world is plagued by terrorist attacks in Turkey, Bangladesh and Iraq as well as suspected terrorist explosions in New York and Paris.

While there are still no reports of the possible tolls or injuries in Paris and New York explosions, the terror attack in Iraqi capital Baghdad caused many deaths and injuries on Sunday.

A suicide car bombing claimed by the Daesh terrorists ripped through a busy Baghdad shopping district on Sunday, killing hundreds of people in the deadliest attack this year in Iraq's capital, IRNA reported.

In a separate terrorist incident also claimed by Daesh (ISIS), 20 hostages were reportedly killed while in a café in the Bangladeshi capital of Dhaka on Saturday.
