Iran neutralized 12 terrorist groups this year
IRGC landforces commander Mohammad Pakpour said that twelve
terrorist groups have been neutralized in Iran from March 20, 2013
until today, Fars news agency reported.
Pakpour said that IRGC closely supervises the movements of PJAK
groups, adding that Iran's western regions are secured.
PJAK is an offshoot of Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), which
regularly carries out cross-border raids along Iran's western
borders with autonomous region of northern Iraq.
It is listed as a terrorist organization by many countries and
international bodies.
The separatist group has been fighting to establish an autonomous
state, or possibly a new world country, in the area after
separating Kurdish regions from Iran, Iraq, Turkey and Syria.
Iranian intelligence and security officials have repeatedly
complained that Washington provides military support and logistical
aids for such anti-Iran terrorist groups.
