Iran Press/ Iran news: Iran's Ministry of Intelligence said in a statement that the Takfiri terrorists had plans to carry out acts of terrorism targeting mourning ceremonies marking the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussein (AS), the third Shi'a Imam (AS).
“After its major failure in blowing up a sensitive site in the country via separatist terrorists known as Komala last week, the criminal Zionist regime sought to carry out terrorist operations via its mercenary Takfiri-Daesh teams in mourning ceremonies marking the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussein (AS),” the statement said.
However, it noted, the intelligence forces who had remained vigilant and monitored the mercenaries' activities, detained the Takfiri terrorists in two regions in the country’s west and south and confiscated all of their explosive equipment, communication devices and weapons.
The statement said: "Two intelligence ministry forces were wounded during the operations to capture the Daesh members (ISIL members) as a result of the terrorists’ shooting."
The Intelligence Ministry went on to reiterate that its forces continue to safeguard the country’s security and peace powerfully and intelligently.
The statement at the same time urged Hosseini mourners to pray more for the success of all the border guards and security guards of the country and the defeat of its enemies, as in the past, with full vigilance, and to report every suspicious case to the headquarters of the Ministry of intelligence or the security and police forces present at the place should report.
They also warned the occupiers of al-Quds and the takfiri-ISIL mercenaries and terrorist separatists that they will face a crushing response.
