In a letter addressed to the UN chair, Ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani referred to the attack earlier this week on the judiciary building in Zahedan by the so-called terrorist group Jaish al-Adl, describing it as a coordinated and brutal assault that deliberately targeted civilians.
According to the letter, three armed militants opened fire on Saturday, killing at least six civilians, including a six-month-old infant, and injuring 24 others. Iranian security forces swiftly neutralized all three attackers. Jaish al-Adl has openly claimed responsibility.
Labeling the incident the deadliest attack by the group since October 2024, Iravani accused Jaish al-Adl of operating with external support, including from Daesh-Khorasan and allegedly from the Israeli regime.
Iran reaffirmed its commitment to combating terrorism and urged that the letter be circulated as an official UN document under the agenda item on eliminating international terrorism.
