At least nine people have been killed and eight wounded in attacks on Kohgiluyeh County and the Boyed-Ahmad County, Al Jazeera reports, citing Fars.

Citing a medical official, Fars said five people were killed and eight wounded in an attack on the Koh Siah area of Kohgiluyeh County, while four others were killed in the Vazg and Kakan areas of Boyer-Ahmad County.

Iran’s Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province is where the rescue operation for the missing US airman from the downed F-15E jet took place.
