TEHRAN (AFP) – Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said they killed six “armed bandits” in a shootout in the country’s southeast that also left three of its members dead.
The latest clashes in Sistan-Baluchistan broke out around a hideout of the militants near a village in the centre of the province, the paramilitary force said late Saturday on its Sepah
News website.
“Six bandits were killed and five others wounded,” it said, while three members of the force also died. No arrests were announced.
