The Security Forces “responded by opening fire on the assailants, who were traveling on a motorcycle,” according to the statement. One of them was hit and wounded and later died due to the seriousness of his injuries. In addition, security and intelligence measures have been put in place to identify and arrest the second attacker, who remains free.

On the other hand, the Revolutionary Guard has reported that it has dismantled three cells of the People’s Mujahideen Organization of Iran (PMOI), considered terrorist by Tehran in three provinces of the country: Khuzestan, Fars and Isfahan.

Members of these cells have been arrested while preparing acts of sabotage and terrorist attacks, reports Tasnim.
