TEHRAN \u2013 Iranian police in southeastern Sistan and Baluchestan province announced Tuesday that they had thwarted an attempted attack on a police station in Zahedan.<\/p>\n
According to the province\u2019s police information center, \u201cThe armed assault on the Chashmeh Ziarat police station was met with failure thanks to\u00a0the alertness of the officers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The statement further elaborated that the attempt\u00a0occurred Monday night, adding that the officers’ swift and effective response ensured that there were no casualties or property damage.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith their vigilance and superior firepower, the officers managed to repel the attackers, who chose to flee rather than face capture,\u201d the police center reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The attackers are now being pursued, the notice added. \u201cThese individuals are under pursuit and, with the cooperation of the local community, they will soon be identified, apprehended, and handed over to justice.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sistan and Baluchestan Province has long been a target of foreign-backed terrorist outfits seeking\u00a0to destabilize Iran.<\/p>\n
Iranian forces have repeatedly thwarted such plots, showcasing the nation’s resolve to combat terrorism and maintain its sovereignty and security.<\/p>\n
The latest incident comes amidst a stepped-up anti-terrorism campaign by the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC).\u00a0<\/p>\n
The IRGC carried out a large-scale drill codenamed “Martyrs of Security” over several months, commencing\u00a0in late October 2024.<\/p>\n
These operations, which also involved the Ministry of Intelligence and police forces, resulted in the elimination of at least three terror teams.<\/p>\n
Authorities stated that one of those arrested is linked to the so-called Jaish al-Adl, the terrorist group that claimed responsibility for a deadly attack on a police convoy in Taftan County in October 2024.
