Iran: dismantled cell ready to commit attacks during demonstrations

An operation carried out last night by Iranian intelligence led to the identification and dismantling of an active terrorist cell in Piranshahr ready to commit attacks during demonstrators' demonstrations.

During a fire fight on Wednesday night, the terrorists used a woman as a human shield. One member of the cell would have been killed while the others would have been wounded and arrested. During the delicate operation also three agents of the services were killed.

According to a source cited by the Fars agency, the terrorist cell had entered western Iran in recent weeks and had been ordered to kill protesters during the demonstrations to put the blame on law enforcement and cause explosions to make blame the demonstrators.

This is the second terrorist cell with the same objective dismantled in the west of the country in the last few hours.
