Alwaght- Iranian Security Forces have arrested terrorists sent by Saudi Arabia to carry out bombings inside the West Asian country, the secretary of Iran’s Expediency Council said on Monday.
Press TV cited Mohsen Rezaei as saying "The Saudis opened a consulate in Iraq’s Arbil and had a number of terrorist groups enter into Iran to carry out explosions; they all have been arrested”.
Iranian senior official urged the country's Foreign Ministry to "circulate the documents and evidence pertaining to these groups throughout the world so that at least Muslim countries get to know that Saudis maniacally disturb the region’s calm and secure scene and pursue terror acts."
He also advised that Iranian authorities stop exercising patience with Riyadh, and act against its acts of instigation.
On Sunday, it was reported that Iran had captured two ISIS terrorists in the country’s western province of Hamadan which borders the Iranian provinces of Kurdistan and Kermanshah near Iraq.
The province’s intelligence director general said the two, both Iranian nationals with links to ISIS, had been caught during two separate intelligence operations while they were en route to Tehran.
On Tuesday, Rezaei warned that a seditious push is underway against the Muslim world, with Wahhabism at its center.
"Wahhabism and Zionism are maniacally acting against the Muslim and resistance front every day,” he said.
"Their last measure was to prevent Iranian pilgrims from going on the Hajj pilgrimage,” he added.
Wahhabism is an extremely intolerant and violent ideology that dominates Saudi Arabia and is freely preached by clerics in the Arab country.
Takfirism, or the practice of accusing others of being “infidels,” which is the trademark practice of Daesh, is a characteristic of Wahhabism.
Last month, Iran said it will not send pilgrims to Hajj this year because Saudi Arabia is refusing to cooperate on arrangements for Iranians to join the annual rituals in September.
Saudi Arabia severed diplomatic relations with Iran on January 3 following attacks on vacant Saudi diplomatic perimeters in Tehran and Mashhad by angry protesters.
The attacks occurred during otherwise peaceful demonstrations in reaction to the Saudi execution of prominent cleric Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr.
Iran arrested some 100 people over the acts of transgression. Iranian officials also strongly condemned the attacks.
