2 Sanandaj attack terrorists killed

Iranian security forces have killed two gunmen who opened fire on a police patrol in the western province of Kordestan on Thursday, leaving five people dead and nine injured.

“Two of the main elements of the Sanandaj terrorist incident were killed by security forces during a chase,” an official of the law enforcement forces of Kordestan province told the Fars news agency late on Friday.

Four police officers and one civilian were killed in the terrorist attack in Sanandaj, the capital of Kordestan province, and five police officers and four civilians were injured.

The police say counter-revolutionary cells were behind the attack.
