    ISIS claims responsibility for deadliest attack in Iran since 1979
    revolution

    SIS has claimed responsibility for the deadly twin blasts near the
    burial site of slain military commander Qasem Soleimani in southern
    Iran.

    At least 84 people were killed and 284 injured in the blasts on
    Wednesday, state-run news agency IRNA reported, in what was the
    deadliest attack in Iran since its 1979 revolution.

    ISIS media wing Al-Furqan issued a statement on Thursday - more than
    24 hours after the explosions - claiming two suicide bombers had
    detonated their explosive vests as Shiite mourners gathered for the
    fourth anniversary of the assassination of Soleimani near his grave in
    his hometown of Kerman.

    The statement, titled "And Kill Them Wherever You Find Them," named
    the two bombers and said they targeted a gathering of "polytheists"
    near the grave of their "dead leader" Soleimani.
