Iranian forces kill 8 after deadly attack in southeast: state media

Iran’s military has killed eight militants in an operation in the restive southeast since a deadly attack last month on a police station, state media reported on Tuesday.

On October 26, militants from the Jaish al-Adl group killed 10 police officers in Taftan county, Sistan-Baluchistan province — one of the deadliest attacks in the region in recent months.

“A total of eight terrorists have been killed” during operations in the province, Revolutionary Guards commander Ahmad Shafahi said, quoted by the official IRNA news agency.
