Iran Parliament Speaker Commemorates Martyrs of Daesh Attack
In an open session of the Parliament on Sunday, he said the incident was a sign of the enemies’ plots against the Iranian nation.
Were it not for the efforts of the country’s soldiers and guardians, the enemies would not think twice about committing any crime against the people of Iran, he added.
He added that it has been proved that the spy agencies of the US, Zionist regime and certain regional states were behind the attack.
On June 7, 2017, terrorists launched simultaneous attacks on Iran’s parliament building and on the mausoleum of late founder of the Islamic Republic Imam Khomeini in Tehran.
The Daesh terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attacks, which killed 17 people and wounded more than 40.
Hojat-ol-Islam Taqavi, the former managing director of the International Quran News Agency (IQNA), was among those martyred in the attack on the Parliament.
