The UN Security Council on Tuesday strongly deplored "the heinous and cowardly terrorist attack" in Baghdad, which left at least 250 people dead and 225 others injured.
"The members of the Security Council underlined the need to bring perpetrators, organizers, financiers and sponsors of these reprehensible acts of terrorism to justice," said the 15-nation UN body in a press statement.
The Islamic State has claimed responsibility for the attack in a crowded shopping district in Baghdad, the deadliest in Iraq in months.
On Sunday, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned the terrorist attack in Baghdad, calling on the Iraqi government to ensure that "the perpetrators of this horrific crime are brought to justice as soon as possible."
