The noble and martyr-fostering people of Zahedan, after the end of Zahedan Friday prayers, witnessed the bitter event of attack of the armed terrorists affiliated with the Global Arrogance and mercenaries of Jaish al-Zolm on several police and military bases and subsequently the terrible shooting to the people on streets and public thoroughfares in the city which led to the killing of a number of separatist terrorists and the injury of several security, military and law enforcement forces and a number of citizens.
