The IRGC Ground Force’s Quds Base said the two were martyred on Saturday night in a gunfight with the outlaws in the provincial capital, Zahedan.

The two IRGC servicemen were martyred as they were carrying out an operation against the armed outlaws, said a statement.

In July 2018, anti-revolutionary terrorists attacked a border post of the Hamzeh Seyed al-Shohada Base in the western province of Kurdistan, killing 11 forces of the base.

The IRGC is tasked with protecting the country’s northwestern and southeastern borders.
