[IsrelTimes] Two remotely operated, improvised explosive devices detonated in Tehran early today, Iran’s state media reports.
A Revolutionary Guard security source says the explosions slightly injured three people including a member of the paramilitary Basij, an all-volunteer force loyal to the Islamic Republic, the Islamic Republic News Agency says.
The state media agency reports a third device was defused.
Chip Diller Mohammad Balideh, a Revolutionary Guard commander for Tehran region 10, told the Hamshahri newspaper “the situation is normal and under control.”
“Nothing extraordinary happened here, just a limited explosion on the street at the hands of traitorous and unpatriotic elements, with no fatalities or serious damages,” Balideh says.
