Gunmen attacked an Iranian military parade in Ahvaz, killing 25 people, including 12 Revolutionary Guards, and wounding over 60 others.
Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei accused US-backed Gulf Arab states of orchestrating the attack, escalating regional tensions, while both the Ahvaz National Resistance and Islamic State claimed responsibility.
The rare and deadly assault, which also killed women and children, struck a blow to Iran's internal security and is expected to strengthen the Revolutionary Guards' position and influence.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani ordered an immediate investigation, with the incident likely to impact Iran's regional foreign policy and upcoming UN General Assembly address.
