Security Forces Dismantle Terror Group

Iranian security forces dismantled a foreign-backed terrorist group and killed its ringleader, the Intelligence Ministry said.
In a statement on Tuesday, the ministry announced that Iranian forces have arrested the main members of the cell, which has been supported and guided by the enemies’ intelligence services.
The terrorist team had sought to carry out acts of sabotage inside Iran, it noted.
The ministry said more details of the operation will be announced subsequently.
The operation came over a week after security forces dismantled a terrorist and counterrevolutionary team in the northwestern province of West Azarbaijan, killing two of its members and arresting a number of others.
The team planned to carry out acts of terror against provincial military forces and extort money from the wealthy people to hand it over to counterrevolutionary groups.
