Iran executes man convicted of deadly attack on Sistan-Baluchistan police station
2026-11-09
[IsraelTimes] Judiciary says ‘several’ officers killed in assault by Mohammad Aref Shahbakhsh, who was an operative linked to terrorist group Jaish al-Zolm/Jaish al-Adl.

Jaish al-Adl is an outlawed militant group in Sistan-Baluchistan province, one of Iran’s poorest, which has long seen clashes between security forces and armed groups, including Sunni militants and members of the ethnic Baloch minority.

Iran accuses the United States and Israel of supporting armed groups there.

“The attack on Qaleh Bid police station in Khash city in the southeastern province of Sistan-Baluchistan resulted in the martyrdom and injury of several police personnel,” the judiciary’s media noted without specifying the date of the attack.

Shahbakhsh was convicted of “baghi (armed rebellion against the Islamic state) and moharebeh (waging war against God) for his role in the armed attack on the station,” Mizan said.

Clashes between armed groups and Iranian security forces in the region have flared again in recent months.
