UN expert wants probe into reports of Iranian border forces’ deadly attack on Afghan migrants

A United Nations expert is calling for an investigation into reports that an attack by Iranian security forces on the border with Afghanistan killed and wounded migrants. Iran has denied any shooting took place Sunday near Saravan, a town in the country’s restive southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchistan, which borders Taliban-ruled Afghanistan. The Taliban said Thursday they will provide updates once their investigation into the reported attack is complete.
