Policeman, three militants killed in Iranian province bordering Pakistan
TEHRAN: Militants killed one policeman in Iran's restive southeastern province of Sistan-Baluchistan, Iranian media reported Sunday, adding that three assailants also died. 'A policeman from Saravan was killed while terrorists were trying to enter the police station' in that area of Sistan-Baluchistan, the Tasnim news agency said. The agency said the attackers were members of Jaish Al-Adl (Arabic for 'Army of Justice') Baloch militant group, which operates from the borderlands between Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan, mainly the Sistan-Baluchestan triangle, but active inside Iran. 'Three terrorists were killed and two were arrested,' Tasnim said. Sistan-Baluchistan, which shares a long border with Pakistan and Afghanistan, has been the site of frequent clashes between security forces and insurgents or smugglers. The province hosts a significant population from the Baloch ethnic minority, which practices Sunni Islam in Shiite-majority Iran. On July 26, gunmen stormed a courthouse in the province's capital Zahedan, killing at least six people, in an attack that was later claimed by Jaish Al-Adl. In one of the deadliest attacks in the province, 10 police officers were killed in October.
