On August 5, members of a terrorist group planted an explosive device in a ditch on Sadra street of Zahedan and then called the police to report a fake incident. Immediately after the police forces arrived on the scene, the terrorists detonated the bomb, causing minor injuries to four policemen and damage to their car.
