Unknown gunmen attack military parade in Iran

SANAA, Sept.22 (YPA) – Dozens of people were killed and wounded on Saturday morning in a terrorist attack on a military parade in southwestern Iran.

According to Reuters, the Iranian state television reported that dozens were killed after unidentified assailants opened fire during a military parade in the southwestern Iranian city of Ahvaz.

The Iranian news agency Fars said the shooting targeted soldiers involved in the military parade, which marks the beginning of the anniversary of Iran’s war against Saddam Hussein’s regime in Iraq in the 1980s.

No official television in Iran or any Iranian agency has released a possible death toll from the terrorist attack so far.
