Four militiamen were killed, yesterday, in a clash which happened near the border zone close to the northwestern City of Oroomiah (former Rezai-e).

Unidentified armed individuals attacked their military post located at Jarmi-Tabkar.

The situation in the region is very tense and attacks against regime forces have increased since three weeks ago.
