AN accidental explosion at a Revolutionary Guard ammunition depot west of Tehran killed at least 15 soldiers yesterday, officials said.
The explosion occurred while military personnel were transporting munitions at a base, said Guard spokesman General Ramazan Sharif. The base is located outside Bidganeh village, 40 kilometers southwest of the capital. The Guard is Iran's most powerful military force. "My colleagues at the Guard were transporting ammunition at one of the depots at the site when an explosion occurred as a result of an accident," Sharif said. The semi-official ISNA news agency said another 10 people were injured and hospitalized. Sharif said some of them were in critical condition.
