On 7 June 2017, two terrorist attacks were simultaneously carried out by five terrorists belonging to

the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) against the Iranian Parliament building and
the Mausoleum of Ruhollah Khomeini, both in Tehran, Iran, leaving 17 civilians dead and 43
wounded.[4][5][6][7] The shootings were the first terrorist attacks in Tehran in more than a decade,[8] and
the first major terror attack in the country since the 2010 Zahedan bombings.[9]
Government officials later stated that they had foiled a third attack that day.[1][8] Iranian security
services stated on 8 June that they had identified the five militants responsible for the twin events,
disclosing the men's first names, and detailed that they had entered Iran in August 2016. The
terrorists reportedly served in a clandestine cell linked to Wahhabi-related networks.[10] Some Iranian
officials have accused the American, Israeli, and Saudi governments of being behind the
attacks.[11][12][13]
The formal state funeral took place on 9 June in the context of traditional Friday prayers, and
multiple Iranian officials attended such as President Hassan Rouhani, Parliament Speaker Ali
Larijani, and Chief Justice Sadeq Larijani. Rouhani's speech stressed national unity, saying that "the
nation will undoubtedly emerge victorious".[14] On 10 June, security officials stated that they had killed
the operational commander and mastermind behind the attack
