Iranian forces arrest terrorists behind shooting at anti-war demonstrators in Kerman
Iran's Intelligence Ministry says its forces have arrested terrorists behind the shooting at people who participated in street rallies in Kerman province to condemn the illegal US-Israeli war of aggression against the country.
In a statement released on Sunday, the ministry said that its forces, in cooperation with forces from the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), police, and the provincial Justice Department, managed to identify and arrest the main terrorist responsible for shooting at the protesters in Kerman’s Azadi Square, and his three accomplices, including two men and a woman.
It added that the terrorists opened fire on people at the anti-war gathering, injuring two men and a young girl.
The arrested terrorists are affiliated with a pro-monarchist group led by the child-killing Zionist regime, according to the statement.
Several firearms and hunting weapons, as well as significant amounts of ammunition and explosive devices, were confiscated from the terrorist team.
The unprovoked US-Israeli aggression on Iran began on February 28 with airstrikes that assassinated senior Iranian officials and commanders.
The Iranian armed forces unleashed 100 waves of successful retaliatory strikes against sensitive and strategic American and Israeli targets throughout the region.
On April 8, forty days into the war, a Pakistan-brokered temporary ceasefire went into effect, but the first round of Tehran-Washington negotiations failed to reach an agreement.
Since the start of the war, Iranians have staged street rallies across the country to denounce the criminal aggression against the country and express their support for the powerful armed forces.
