Iran: Iranian forces clash with Jaish al-Ahd terrorist group on Iran-Pakistan border
According to Tasnim news agency, one of IRGC forces was martyred in the attack and three others were injured.

Majid Aqa Babaei, director of the Interior Ministry department for border affairs, said the terrorists were pushed back by Iranian forces and could not achieve their evil goals.
“The terrorist group, like similar ones, is located in Pakistan,” Aqa Babaei said. “They intended to carry out an operation [to cross the border into Iran], but failed and were struck by [Iran’s] border forces.”
