Iran, India Eager to Begin Anti-Terror Cooperation

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.
