Islamic State claims responsibility for attacks that killed nearly 100 people in Iran

The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for a bomb attack in Iran that killed 84 people and wounded many others during the anniversary of Qasem Soleimani's assassination by the US.
Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei promised a "harsh response" to the attack, stating that "cruel criminals" would be strongly dealt with.
Two masked men were identified by IS as the attackers, named "Omar al-Muwahhid" and "Sayfullah al-Mujahid," although it is unclear if they were Iranians or foreigners.
