5/18 — IRGC Foils US Arms Shipments To 'Terror Groups' Near Border With Iraqi Kurdistan

President Donald Trump recently complained that Iranian Kurds ‘kept’ US weapons for themselves and did not give them to ‘protesters’

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said in a statement on 18 May that it foiled an attempt to smuggle a large shipment of US-made weapons and ammunition into the country.

“Counter-revolutionary terror groups based in north Iraq, acting on behalf of the US and Zionist regime, intended to transfer a large shipment of brand-new US weapons and ammunition into the country. They were targeted and struck in Baneh, Kurdistan Province. Large quantities of weapons and ammunition were discovered and confiscated,” the statement said.

The statement added that intelligence efforts are ongoing to identify and arrest all internal collaborators allegedly linked to the armed groups.

The IRGC Hamzeh Sayyed al-Shuhada Headquarters warned “all mercenary elements, their agents, and their leaders that any security-related action will be met with severe force, and … a regret inducing response.”

The announcement comes as Washington has been seeking to arm separatist Iranian Kurdish groups in order to destabilize the Islamic Republic. At the start of the war, reports said that US President Donald Trump was seeking to turn Kurdish militias into a “ground force” within Iran.
