Deadly bomb blasts hit southwest Iran
AHVAZ, Iran, Jan. 24 (UPI) -- At least six people were killed Tuesday by a double explosion in southwestern Iran, the Islamic Republic News Agency reported.

At least 40 people were wounded in the city of Ahvaz.

The first bomb exploded at the city's Natural Resources Department at 10:15 a.m., local time, while the second went off near a bank in the downtown area.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad assigned the Interior Minister to head the investigation into the attacks. The president suggested that the bombings might have been carried out by or at least abetted by foreign agents.
