Nasim��The Jaish-ul-Adl terrorist group backed by Wahhabi terrorist groups has claimed responsibility for the abduction of five Iranian border guards in Iran�s southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan.
Iran�s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)�reportedly dispatched a special team on Sunday to hit back at the terrorists and rescue the 5 border guards.
On Saturday Iran and Pakistan border security officers started their search for the abductees after the incident occurred in Sistan and Baluchestan�s Jakigour region on Friday.
On October 25, 2013, the Jaish-ul-Adl group killed 14 Iranian border guards and wounded three others in the border region near the city of Saravan in Sistan and Baluchestan Province.
In a letter to the president of the UN Security Council on October 28, 2013, Iranian Ambassador to the UN Mohammad Khazaei said evidence indicates that the Jaish-ul-Adl terrorist group carried out the terrorist attack by infiltrating Iran�s eastern borders from Pakistan.
Iran President Hassan Rouhani called for an investigation into the incident, tasking the Foreign Ministry with taking the necessary measures to implement a border security agreement with Pakistan.
In February, Iran and Pakistan signed a security agreement, under which both countries are required to cooperate in preventing and combating organized crime, fighting terrorism and countering activities that pose a threat to the national security of either country.
