Iran Thwarts ISIS Terror Attack Planned for Eid Al-Fitr

Iran has been the target of multiple attacks by extremist groups in recent months

Iranian police arrested on 6 April a senior ISIS operative and two other members of the group accused of planning a suicide attack during the upcoming Eid al-Fitr celebrations for the end of Ramadan.

The police arrested Mohammad Zaker, known as “Ramesh,” and the men following a gunbattle in Karaj, west of the capital, Tehran.

The arrests come after Iranian security forces battled militants from Jaish al-Adl, a separatist ethnic Baluch group, for nearly 17 hours on Thursday. Gunbattles with the militant group, which has received support from the US and Israel in the past, left ten security officers and 18 militants dead.

The US and Israel have been accused of using ISIS and other extremist groups as proxies to attack their enemies in the past, including toppling the Syrian and Iraqi governments between 2013 and 2015.

Last month, an ISIS affiliate in Afghanistan claimed credit for an attack on a Moscow theatre in which gunmen opened fire with automatic weapons at concertgoers, killing at least 144 people.
