According to The Iran Project,On Friday, 11 police forces were killed in the attack and seven more were wounded. Some of the injured are in critical condition. The Pakistan-based so-called Jaish-ul-Adl terrorist group claimed responsibility for the assault.
In a message to Iran’s Police Chief Brigadier General Ahmad Reza Radan on Saturday, Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi said the “blind” terrorist attack portrayed a plot by enemies to undermine unity among Muslims.

Mousavi said his forces would provide full support for the Iranian Police, expressing confidence the perpetrators would be identified and brought to justice.

The United Nations denounced the vicious terrorist attack in the strongest terms on Saturday.
