Iran Hits Militants in Syria in Revenge for Ahvaz Terror Attack

Iran launched several ballistic missiles into eastern Syria in the early hours of Monday, targeting militants linked to a recent deadly terrorist attack on a military parade.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps said in a statement that it carried out the strike in retaliation for the gun attack in the southwestern city of Ahvaz, Khuzestan Province, on Sept. 22 that killed 25 people and wounded 69, IRNA reported.
IRGC members were among the victims of the terrorist assault, during which gunmen disguised as soldiers fired on a viewing stand as military officials watched a ceremony marking the start of the 1980-88 Iraq-imposed war.
