ISLAMIC STATE CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY FOR BOMBING ATTACK THAT KILLED 84 PEOPLE

The Islamic State claimed responsibility on Thursday for the bombing attack that killed 84 people in Kerman, Iran, on Wednesday, according to a post on the extremist group’s official Telegram account.

On Telegram, the group called it a “dual martyrdom operation,” and described how two militants approached a commemoration ceremony at the tomb of Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani and detonated explosive belts strapped to their bodies “near the grave of the hypocrite leader,” referring to General Suleimani. The general, a widely revered, and feared, Iranian military and security leader, was assassinated four years ago in an American drone attack.

The statement identified the two attackers as Omar al-Mowahid and Sayefulla al-Mujahid. MORE AT Islamic State Takes Responsibility for Deadly Bombings in Iran - The New York Times (nytimes.com)
