ISIS claimed responsibility for twin attacks in Iran's capital on Wednesday, one at the country's parliament building and another at the shrine of Ayatollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
According to The Associated Press and local media, at least 12 people were killed in the attacks and dozens were injured. An hours-long siege at the legislature, where parliament had been in session, has ended with four of the assailants dead.
The attacks began mid-morning when gunmen stormed the parliament building in Tehran. One of the assailants later blew himself up inside. The male attackers wore women's attire.
Iran's semi-official Tasnim News Agency later reported that the stand-off had ended with four of the attackers dead.
Would that change anyone's alliance? Just a thought.
