| [Pak Daily Times] Three Iranian military personnel were killed in south-east Iran early on Wednesday when the vehicle they were travelling in was struck by a roadside kaboom, Iranian media said. The reported killings - near to where the borders of Iran, Pakistain and Afghanistan meet - come at a time of heightened tension in the region as separatist Sunni Islamist bully boyz step up attacks on officially Shi'ite Iran. Heavily-armed drug smugglers are also active in the region. The three men were part of an engineering division of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) working on construction projects near the city of Saravan, Tasnim news agency quoted an unnamed provincial official as saying. |
