Iran's Revolutionary Guards said Monday that its forces killed three gunmen with links to the United States who tried to infiltrate its territory in the country's far northwest.
"Last
night, a counter-revolutionary terrorist group... got caught up in an
intelligence web of (Guards) fighters in the Maku public area," the
Guards' Sepahnews website reported.
The
Guards said the armed group was "affiliated with the global
arrogance", a term the Islamic republic uses for its arch enemy the United
States.
They
said the group had "intended to penetrate deep into our country" but
added that all three were killed during clashes.
"Significant
quantities of weapons, equipment, ammunition and communication systems were
seized."
The Maku
area is a slither of land in West Azerbaijan province located less than 15
kilometres (nine miles) from Iran's far northwestern border with Turkey.
Iran's
west and northwest areas have seen sporadic clashes between its forces and
Kurdish rebels in past years.
On May
29, three Iranian border guards were killed in one such clash with "armed
insurgents" in West Azerbaijan province.
