Iran and India, which have both suffered deadly militant attacks in the past week, agreed on Saturday to cooperate in combating terrorism in the region.
The agreement was made during a meeting between Indian Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj and Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi in Tehran where they discussed issues of mutual and regional interest.
A suicide attack took place in Iran’s southeastern province of Sistan-Baluchestan last Wednesday, which claimed the lives of 27 members of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps.
The so-called Jaish ul-Adl (Army of Justice), which is thought to operate from western Pakistan, claimed the car bombing.
