The Iranian police have killed eight armed bandits near an eastern border town that forms the gateway between Iran and Afghanistan.
The armed men who sought to enter the city of Taybad in Iran's Khorasan Razavi province were stopped near the heights of the city, Khorasan Police said on Monday.
Taybad which is an official crossing point to Islam Qala in Afghanistan, is a rugged area where Iranian police have battled drug smugglers for decades.
The country has lost more than 3,000 police, soldiers, and border guards in the past three decades fighting smugglers.
