According to Haalvsh, a human rights organization monitoring developments in the Baloch region, citing local sources, around 18 motorcycles and four military vehicles were present when the fighting began between the IRGC and the armed men early Tuesday. As the clashes intensified, approximately 40 additional military vehicles carrying reinforcements were reportedly dispatched to the area on Tuesday.
The number of casualties and the extent of any damage from recent clashes remain unknown. The reported deployment of reinforcements and other details have not been independently verified.
The latest confrontation comes amid a wave of attacks against Iranian security forces in the southeastern province, which borders Pakistan and Afghanistan.
More than a dozen Iranian military and police personnel were killed or wounded in four attacks over a 24-hour period last week, according to Haalvsh.
