Iran Says 17-Hour Battle With Separatists Leaves 28 Dead in 2 Cities:

...

In January, the Islamic State staged an attack in Kerman, Iran, killing more than 100 people during a memorial for Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani, Iran’s top commander, who was assassinated in 2020 in a U.S. drone attack in Iraq.

Attacks by Israel in Iran, including on two major gas lines; its strikes against targets in Syria affiliated with Iran; a string of terrorist assaults in Iran; and the prospect of a confrontation with Israel have created panic and anxiety in Iran. The price of Iran’s currency, the rial, has plunged daily against the dollar this week, at its lowest reaching 640,000 against one dollar.

Shahin Modarres, an analyst in Rome who specializes in Iran’s security for an Italian research institution, said of the Jaish al-Adl militants, “Their adeptness indicates a deep understanding of local military and critical infrastructure, posing a significant challenge for Iranian authorities.”

“The timing is also quite significant,” he said, referring to Iran, “because they are under direct attack from Israel and, at the same time, their intelligence system is heavily compromised as the recent terrorist attacks have shown.”
