The Iranian Intelligence Ministry announced on Saturday that one of the suicide bombers in Kerman was a Tajik citizen, and the identity of the second bomber has not yet been confirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ministry said that 11 people have been arrested as part of a “support network for the terrorist team” in the aftermath of the two explosions in Kerman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Wednesday, two explosions occurred during the fourth anniversary ceremony of the killing of Qasem Soleimani in Kerman, killing at least 89 people and injuring 284.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ISIS has claimed responsibility for the explosions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ISIS statement said that two suicide bombers from the group named “Omar al-Mouwahhid” and “Saifullah al-Mujahid” detonated their explosive belts in the middle of the crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ministry’s announcement is consistent with the ISIS statement, which claimed that one of the bombers was a Tajik citizen. However, the ministry’s statement did not provide any further details about the identity of the second bomber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The arrests of 11 people are also a significant development. The ministry said that the suspects were part of a “support network” for the terrorist team, which suggests that they were involved in planning or carrying out the attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The attacks in Kerman have been condemned by the international community. The United Nations Security Council condemned the attacks in a statement, calling them “heinous acts of terrorism.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
