Valin Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 FDD's Long War Journal Janatan Sayeh October 1, 2024 The Islamist and Baluch separatist group Jaish al-Adl claimed responsibility for two attacks on October 1 that killed six Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and Islamic Republic law enforcement personnel in Iran’s Sistan and Baluchistan province. Jaish al-Adl gunmen targeted a vehicle transporting the local IRGC commander and two IRGC members, as well as a city council chairman. Iranian media reported that all four were killed in this first attack in the city of Bent, Nikshahr county, located in southern Sistan and Baluchistan province. Militants also attacked a local special unit patrol later that day, killing two commandos. The second attack occurred in the town of Khash, located close to the Iran-Pakistan border. Iran’s Interior Ministry and the provincial governorate claimed to have launched separate investigations into the incidents. In a joint statement from the Office of the Supreme Leader’s Representative to Sistan and Baluchistan Province and the provincial governorate, the two entities attributed the attacks to Israel and the United States, reflecting a common tactic among regime officials to evade accountability for their shortcomings. Attacks on regime military and law enforcement personnel have surged recently, as the Islamist group took credit for another scattered wave of attacks across Baluchistan on September 29..............(Snip) ______________________________________ There are large parts of Iran where Government Officials don't Go without armed Escorts.
