Check out my new ‘Policy Watch’ for the Washington Institute: “The Islamic State Attacks the Islamic Republic”

On October 26, the Islamic State (IS) conducted an attack in Iran for the first time since September 2018. Unfolding at the Shah Cheragh shrine in Shiraz, the shooting reportedly killed fifteen people and injured at least forty. Afterward, an IS statement claiming responsibility for the incident declared that its purpose was to “let the rawafidh [rejectionists, a derogatory term for Shia Muslims] know that the companions [of the Prophet Muhammad] have descendants who inherit revenge generation after generation.” This message was reemphasized a day later in the Sunni jihadist group’s weekly al-Naba newsletter, which included threats to conduct further attacks inside Iran.
