Iran say 2 suspects killed, 2 arrested in connection with bazaar shooting last month

Iranian authorities say that two suspects have been killed and two more arrested in connection with a shooting that left seven people dead at a bazaar last month in the country’s southwest.

IRNA, Iran’s official state news agency, says the two suspects killed were among the perpetrators of the market shooting in the Iranian city of Izeh last month. The report says two others accused of being involved in the attack have been arrested in the same operation, led by the Revolutionary Guard and the Country’s Intelligence Ministry.

Iranian authorities provide no further details about when the operation took place. They offer no evidence that the four men were involved in the attack. News of the security operation was first announced by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard in a statement published yesterday.
