ISNA – The commander of Iran’s Army Ground Force announced that the Islamic Republic of Iran Army Aviation killed 13 members of the Kurdistan Free Life Party (PJAK) terrorist group.

The commander of Iran's Army Ground Force Brigadier General Kiomars Heidari said on Wednesday, “Today, the Islamic Republic of Iran Army Aviation is the most powerful helicopter fleet in the Middle East and six months ago these forces attacked the PJAK terrorist group and killed 13 members of it”.

Brigadier General Heidari then pointed out that the Islamic Republic of Iran Army Aviation belongs to the world of Islam and they are ready at all times to defend the Islamic existence.

“During the war in Syria, Iran’s Army Aviation pilots carried out the proper reconnaissance missions so that as soon as the Daesh terrorist group approached the borders of Iran, the first sound that it heard was the sound of the helicopters of these Iranian forces,” he added.
