Bomb Blasts Hit Iran Oil Cities

BBC News:
Two bombs have exploded in the southern Iranian cities of Dezful and Abadan, according to Iranian reports. In both cities, the devices were planted in the governor's offices, the official Irna news agency says. No serious injuries were reported.

The attacks are the latest in a series to hit the southern Khuzestan province, at the heart of Iran's oil industry.

Eight people died when bombs exploded outside a government office and a bank in the city of Ahwaz a month ago.
