Detonation of unexploded bombs in Iran reportedly kills 14 Revolutionary Guards
An explosion of leftover bombs from strikes during the war against Iran killed 14 members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Iranian media reports.
A report by the Nournews website, believed to be close to Iran’s security, says the explosion happened near the northern city of Zanjan, which is northwest of Tehran.
It is the largest number of IRGC members reported to be killed since the ceasefire began on April 7. The report says the ammunition included cluster bombs and air mines dropped during the fighting.
