TEHRAN - Terrorists have
attacked a police vehicle in Sistan and Baluchestan Province in southeastern Iran, martyring two officers and wounding another.
The attack took place on the highway linking the province’s city of Khash and the provincial capital Zahedan on Tuesday, Sistan and Baluchestan’s Police Information Center reported.
The “heinous” act was followed by a swift operation aimed at identifying and pursuing the perpetrators, it added.
According to officials, further details and the results of the operation would be publicly announced at the earliest opportunity.
The officers hailed from the Sib and Suran County in the province’s southeastern region, which lies approximately 400 kilometers from Zahedan.
Sistan and Baluchestan borders Pakistan. The province has witnessed multiple terror attacks targeting both civilians and security forces over the past years.
The Islamic Republic says the terrorists are linked to foreign intelligence services.
The overall situation has necessitated vigilant police and military presence and intervention on occasions.
In late August, provincial security forces killed at least eight terrorists responsible for an earlier attack on members of local law enforcement forces.
The attack had seen terrorists martyr five members of the law enforcement, targeting two police patrol units in the Daman District of Iranshahr County as the forces were on duty.
The so-called Jaish al-Adl terrorist group had claimed responsibility for the shooting.
