[Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps - Anadolu Agency])   Members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) participate in a military exercise aimed at “increasing combat capabilities” in Tehran province, Iran, on May 12, 2026. [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps – Anadolu Agency]             Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said Saturday that security forces dismantled a group allegedly linked to the US and Israel in the southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan, killing one person and arresting six others, Anadolu reports.  The IRGC Ground Force’s Quds Headquarters, a regional command responsible for operations in southeastern Iran, said in a statement that the group was targeted in a joint operation shortly after entering the Saravan area, near Iran’s border with Pakistan. The operation involved the provincial Intelligence Department, the IRGC Intelligence Organization and Iran’s police force, according to the statement. One member of the group was killed and six members and supporters were arrested, the IRGC said.

The IRGC claimed that the group planned to carry out attacks against predetermined targets in southern parts of Sistan and Baluchestan province. It further alleged that the group was linked to the US and Israel and intended to carry out a series of attacks as part of the US war against Iran. The US-Israeli war against Iran began on Feb. 28, with attacks targeting military, nuclear and infrastructure sites across the country. Tehran responded with missile and drone strikes against Israel and US military facilities across the region. ​​​​​​​Iran and the US reached a memorandum of understanding in June aimed at ending hostilities, but tensions later resumed amid disputes over its implementation.
