US tells Iran to ‘look in the mirror’ after Ahvaz attacks

The US Ambassador to the UN has urged Iran to “look in the mirror’ for the causes of an attack on a military parade which killed 25 people on Saturday.

 

Four gunmen opened fire at Revolutionary Guard troops in the south-western city of Ahvaz on Saturday, killing 25 people including soldiers and civilians watching a commemorative parade. One of the victims was a four-year-old girl.

 

Speaking on Sunday, before leaving for the UN in New York, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani vowed that Iran would "not let this crime stand".
