The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps in the Iranian province of Sistan and Baluchestan dismantled a Jaish al-Adl terror cell that was planning a terrorist attack, the Tasnim news agency reported.

The IRGC forces carried out an operation that killed one of the terrorists, while the competent authorities are currently in pursuit of the rest of the cell's members, the Iranian state news agency added.

"The authorities confiscated a large amount of weapons, munitions, and explosives slated for use in a major terrorist operation," it added.

This comes on the heels of a similar operation that took place on Monday, wherein Iranian Police Chief Brigadier General Ahmadreza Radan announced that the security forces in Iran have successfully identified and apprehended the four main individuals sought in connection with a terrorist attack on the police headquarters in Rask County, located in the southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan last month.

Radan reported that the terrorists were ambushed and apprehended in recent days through an operation conducted by counter-terrorism police units. He highlighted that this successful operation dealt a significant blow to the Pakistan-based so-called Jaish al-Adl terror group, which had claimed responsibility for the attack.

The police chief mentioned that various firearms and devices intended for terrorist activities were confiscated from the detainees, emphasizing that a thorough investigation is currently underway, and the findings will be made public once the process is completed.

He additionally mentioned that Iranian police forces have acquired crucial information regarding other individuals implicated in the deadly terrorist attack.

11 police officers were killed and seven were injured after a terrorist attack on a police post in southeastern Iran on December 15, 2023.

At the time, the Iranian police spokesperson, General Saeed Montazer-al-Mahdi, described the attack as "cowardly", considering it "blind" terror.

The Jaish al-Adl terror group has conducted several bomb attacks and kidnappings in southeastern Iran over the past years, targeting both civilians and security forces.

The IRGC fired ballistic missiles and drones toward the terrorist group's camp in Pakistan on Tuesday for the first time, according to Iran's Press TV.

According to PressTV reports, the IRGC struck the Jaish-al-Adl terror group's camp in the Balochistan region, Pakistan.

The Jaish al-Adl terror group has conducted several bomb attacks and kidnappings in southeastern Iran over the past years, targeting both civilians and security forces.

The IRGC specified that its target included "gatherings of terrorists linked to the terrorist operations carried out in Iran recently."
