Daesh produces evidence it carried out attack in Iran

Daesh on Sunday released a video of three men in a vehicle who it said were on their way to carry out an attack on an Iranian military parade.

The attack killed at least 25 people almost half of them members of the country’s elite Revolutionary Guards.

Two of the men spoke in Arabic about jihad, while the third spoke in Farsi suggesting they were targeting Iranian Revolutionary Guards, according to the recording, released after Saturday's assault on the Guards in the Iranian city of Ahvaz.

A man wearing a baseball cap emblazoned with what appears to be a Revolutionary Guard logo discussed the impending attack in Farsi in the video. "We are Muslims, they are kafirs (non-believers)," the man says. He adds: "We will destroy them with a strong and guerrilla-style attack, inshallah (God willing)."

70 people were also wounded in the attack which targeted a viewing stand where Iranian officials had gathered in the city of Ahvaz to watch an annual event marking the start of Iran's 1980-88 war with Iraq, state television said.
