IFP- Several days after Iranian missiles targeted the ISIS positions in Syria�s Deir ez-Zor, the terrorist group finally confirmed the attacks.



In a report published by its weekly, the terrorist group admitted after several days that Iran�s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) fired six missiles on the Syrian city of Deir ez-Zor.

ISIS also admitted that the IRGC�s missile strikes were carried out in retaliation for Tehran twin attacks.

According to a Farsi report by al-Alam news website, the confirmation was made as part of a report on Iran and the recent ISIS attacks on the Iranian capital.

The terrorist group went on, however, claiming that the IRGC�s missiles targeted civilian areas instead of the ISIS hideouts. This comes as Iran has explicitly announced that it targeted the ISIS positions killing a number of terrorists� leading commanders.

The terrorist group did not point to the types of missiles fired by the IRGC.

Last Sunday, the IRGC fired six mid-range missiles from its bases in western Iran to target ISIS positions in eastern Syria. As a result of the operation, at least 170 ISIS terrorists were killed and many others wounded, according to the IRGC.
