The Islamic State terrorist group has claimed responsibility for a terrorist attack that occurred yesterday near the Shah Cheragh shrine in Shiraz, Iran. According to Mehr news agency, the attack was carried out by a single individual, resulting in the deaths of 15 people and leaving 19 injured.

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian condemned the act, stating that Iran will not allow terrorists to undermine its security. “There is specific information that the enemies have developed a multi-faceted plan to make Iran insecure.
