Deadly bomb explosion in Iran mosque
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - April 12, 2008 An initial television report said scores had been killed in the
bombing in the city of Shiraz, about 559 miles south of the capital
Tehran. But it later revised its death toll to several and said an
unspecified number of people were also injured.
The semi-official Fars news agency said eight people were killed
and more than 66 injured. The official IRNA news agency said
several people were injured but added that no official reports were
yet available on deaths. There was no immediate explanation for the
discrepancies in the reports.
