People protest in Tehran

An Iranian official said two protesters previously reported killed in the city of Dorud on Saturday night during anti-government demonstrations were targeted by foreign agents and not the police.

โ€œViolent clashes broke out in the illegal demonstration in Dorud on Saturday and unfortunately two people were killed,โ€ Habibollah Khojastehpour, the deputy governor of Lorestan province, said in an interview on state television on Sunday.

โ€œNo shots were fired by the police and security forces. We have found evidence of enemies of the revolution, Takfiri groups and foreign agents in this clash,โ€ he added. Takfiri is a term for Sunni militants especially the Islamic State.
