Iranian state media reported that at least two security officials were killed during an attack in the vicinity of the Chabahar port, a strategic facility located in the Sistan and Baluchestan province. The region has historically been a site of sporadic violence involving security forces and various militant groups.

Following the incident, Iranian officials characterized the perpetrators as 'terrorist groups' and alleged that these organizations receive support from outside the country’s borders. While the government has framed the attack as an act of foreign-backed terrorism, specific details regarding the identity of the attackers or the exact circumstances of the engagement remain limited. No specific group has immediately claimed responsibility for the operation, and independent verification of the government's claims regarding foreign involvement is currently unavailable. The incident highlights ongoing security challenges in the southeastern region, which serves as a vital trade hub for Iran.
