In a tense escalation, an Iranian Revolutionary Guards member was fatally shot in Sistan-Baluchestan province, bordering Pakistan and Afghanistan. The attack follows Iran's strikes on two bases of the militant group Jaish ul-Adl in Pakistan's Balochistan province. Iranian news agency IRNA reported the incident, stating efforts to identify the perpetrators are underway. Earlier, Pakistan recalled its ambassador to Iran, alleging a violation of airspace and denouncing Iran's strikes as an "illegal act." The incident adds strain to already heightened regional tensions, prompting concerns about potential repercussions in the volatile border region.
