Report: At Least 20 Guard Personnel Killed in Iran Bombing

by Associated Press

   TEHRAN --

   The IRNA news agency reported the toll in the bombing Wednesday in
   Sistan and Baluchistan province.

   No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack.
   The province, which lies on a major opium trafficking route, has seen
   occasional clashes between Iranian forces and Baluch separatists, as
   well as drug traffickers.
