Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says a US missile attack killed three of its personnel on 30 July.

The IRGC’s Ansar al-Mahdi branch in Zanjan province identified those killed as Mahmoud Mollajabari, Mohammadreza Cheraghi and Jamal Amiri, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported.

The branch said the three died while “defending Iran’s borders and people”.

It described the strike as a “brutal attack by the criminal terrorist regime of the United States”.
