Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) eliminated four terrorists during a military exercise in Sistan and Balouchistan, southeastern Iran, Tasnim reported on Friday.

The operation, part of a drill codenamed Martyrs of Security, targeted groups that the IRGC claims were proxy forces for hostile entities.

General Shafaei, spokesperson for the drill, stated that IRGC units, in collaboration with the Intelligence Ministry and local police, located eight individuals involved in these terror cells, resulting in the arrest of four and the killing of four others.

Among those detained was a prominent member linked to an October 26 attack on police in Taftan, which killed 10 servicemen.

The IRGC's efforts yielded a cache of weapons and ammunition and utilized advanced combat drones and updated tactical approaches.

This operation follows heightened security measures in the region, particularly after the recent assault in Taftan, where armed militants attacked Iranian law enforcement personnel.

The Sistan-Baluchistan province borders both Pakistan and Afghanistan. Tensions in the area are longstanding, often erupting into clashes between Iranian security forces and local insurgents.

The area has seen repeated incidents, including an early October attack that left six people, including police officers, dead. Back then, Jaish al-Adl claimed responsibility for those attacks.

In January, Iran launched a strike within Pakistan's borders, targeting a headquarters for the terrorist organization. Pakistan later fired back with the stated objective of targeting what it called "terrorist hideouts" in Iran.

Iranian state media reported that three women and four children were killed after the explosions in the country's southeast.

The two countries later agreed to work on a sustainable peace.
