Public relations of the Ministry of Information published some details about the terrorist incident in Kerman in the form of announcement number one, which is as follows:
With deep regret and sadness from the recent terrorist tragedy that happened on the anniversary of the martyrdom of Lt. Gen. Qasem Soleimani, and with condolences for the martyrdom of a group of compatriots, I pray to the proud nation of Iran, to the people of Kerman and especially to the bereaved dear families, and with a humble request from the God for the immediate and complete healing of the injured. We bring to the attention of the noble nation of Iran as follows:
1. In a short time after the fatal incident, the intelligence forces discovered the first traces of Daesh terrorist agents and in order to identify other agents who cooperate and support the terrorists, as well as other possible criminals, with the cooperation of all security, law enforcement and the intelligence forces of the country implemented extensive national intelligence, technical and security measures.
2. Out of the two dead suicide terrorists, one had Tajik nationality and the identity of the second terrorist has not been definitively established yet.
3. With the identification of the factors that brought the terrorists into the country, the first arrest operation was carried out in the evening of the day of the incident.
4. In the morning of the next day (Thursday, Dey 14), the residence used by the two dead terrorists was identified in the outskirts of Kerman city, as well as 2 elements supporting and supplying the said residence, were identified and arrested.
5. In the continuation of the operation, 9 people from the support network of the terrorist team and its associates were identified and arrested in 6 provinces of the country.
This operation will definitely continue until the arrest of the last person who was involved in supporting the criminals in any way and to any extent.
6. The failure to issue a statement until this moment was due to the discovery of ready-made explosive equipment at the residence of the terrorists, which could indicate the possibility of the presence and referral of other agents to transfer explosive materials and use them in other places. Some of the discovered equipment are: 2 explosive vests, 2 remote control devices, 2 explosive detonators, several thousand bullets used in explosive vests, wiring prepared for the vests and quantities of explosive raw materials.
7. Since the identification operations as well as the secondary supply measures are being carried out in the country and abroad with all the available capacities, the other information obtained will be brought to the attention of the noble nation of Iran at the appropriate time.
8. The widespread presence of the noble nation of Islamic Iran in the continuation of the commemoration gatherings of Martyr Soleimani (RA) as well as in the funeral ceremonies of the martyrs and the strong condemnation of that blind terrorist act, as always, has been and will be neutralizing the seditions and conspiracies of the enemies, including Daesh mercenaries and American and Zionist Daesh creators.
While bowing to the greatness of this great nation, the anonymous soldiers of Imam Zaman (AS) assure the wise leader of the Islamic Revolution that "the soldiers of Soleimani's path will give a harsh response to the wickedness of the criminals".
