What is not coming through clearly in most of the news reports on this is that there were two separate attacks. Two IRGC Brigadier Generals were killed at a tribal meeting, and another four IRGC officers were killed by an IED that targeted their convoy. Both events took place in the Pishin region near the Pakistan border, and were nearly simultaneous. The current numbers are six IRGC officers and 30 others dead.
