[Regnum] The militants carried out a terrorist attack on August 13 at the Shah Cherakh mosque in Iran. As a result, one person died and eight others were injured, said Yadollah Bueli, commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in Fars province.

“As a result of the incident, one person has been killed and eight others injured or injured so far. All of them were delivered to treatment centers,” he said.

Earlier, the IRNA agency informed that at least four people were killed as a result of the attack. According to the Tasnim agency, two militants tried to enter the territory of the mosque, one of them was detained, and the search for the second continues. Bueli said that law enforcement officers found a firearm in the detained man. Initially, the Iranian media reported four dead, but later officially it became known about one dead.

As reported by IA Regnum, the attack on the Shah Cherakh mosque also took place in October 2022. Three intruders opened fire there. During the attack, 13 people were killed and 45 were injured.
The Times of Israel transliterates the name as Shah Cheragh in the city of Shiraz, adding:
A mass shooting in October at the revered shrine left 13 people dead and 30 maimed, in an attack later claimed by Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....

...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.

"It happened around 19:00 local time (15:30 GMT) ... an armed terrorist entered the Shrine area and started shooting ... he was arrested," said Mohammad Hadi Imaniyeh, the governor of Fars province.

"One person was killed in the attack."

At least seven people were wounded, including two workers at the shrine and two pilgrims, and shops in the area had been closed. State TV said the shrine area had been cordoned off by security forces.

No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack on the Shah Cheragh shrine, which state news agency IRNA said had been carried out by terrorists.
