Tehran, Jan. 13 (Prensa Latina) Iranian authorities announced the arrest in the city of Zahedan of several members of terrorist cells linked to the state of Israel, who had infiltrated the Persian country through its eastern border.

The Iranian Ministry of Intelligence reported that the members of these groups, instigated by the Israeli spy service, known as Mossad, and the United States, were arrested as they were preparing to carry out attacks against public service centers.

The arrests come amid anti-government unrest in the country, on the one hand, and massive demonstrations in support of the current administration, on the other.

For Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the marches in support of his country’s government are an “eloquent response to the United States,” whose government is threatening to carry out new attacks against the Persian nation.
