Images showed bullet holes in walls and windows and blood on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>The shrine, located in the province of Fars and one of the most important in Shia Islam, was hit by a similar attack on October 26, 2022.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, a lone gunman entered the shrine with an automatic rifle, shooting a group of pilgrims and staff. Authorities said the gunman killed 13 people and injured 40 others before being killed by security forces.<\/p>\n<p>The ISIL (ISIS) armed group released a video through its Amaq website and took responsibility for the attack.<\/p>\n<p>The group was also responsible for coordinated 2017 attacks on the Iranian parliament and the mausoleum of former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini in Tehran.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-184700\" src=\"http:\/\/wardoon.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3951481-1660526242.webp\"
