The blasts struck an event marking the fourth anniversary of the killing of Gen. Qassem Soleimani, the head of the Revolutionary Guard's elite Quds Force, who died in a U.S. drone strike in Iraq in January 2020. The explosions occurred near his grave site in Kerman, about 500 miles southeast of the capital, Tehran.

Authorities said some people were injured while fleeing afterward. Footage suggested the second blast occurred some 15 minutes after the first. A delayed second explosion is often used by militants to target emergency personnel responding to the scene and inflict more casualties.

Kerman's deputy governor, Rahman Jalali, called the attack "terroristic," without elaborating. Iran has multiple foes who could be behind the assault, including exile groups, militant organizations and state actors.
