In his Thursday message, Ayatollah Khamenei said the โhands of the mercenary criminals were once again stained with the blood of decent and young servants of the country.โ
โA group of our human assets, who had dedicated themselves to protecting our borders and safeguarding the peopleโs security, were martyred in the attack of evil and stonehearted terrorists,โ the Leader said.
โThe perpetrators of the crime are definitely linked to the spy services of certain regional and ultra-regional states, and the countryโs officials must focus on that, and seriously pursue it,โ he added.
โThe Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) is duty-bound to pursue any possible fault that caused the incident,โ he said.
The Leader offered condolences to the families of the innocent martyrs as well as the great family of the IRGC. He wished patience for them and speedy recovery for the wounded.
A suicide attack by Pakistan-based Takfiri elements on a bus carrying Iranian border guards in Iranโs Sistan and Baluchestan province has killed and wounded dozens of IRGC forces.
The attack, claimed by the so-called Jaish ul-Adl terrorist group, targeted the bus carrying IRGC border guards travelling between the cities of Zahedan and Khash in south-eastern Iran.
