LONDON, Feb 26 (IranMania) - Two Iranian border guards have been shot dead and three others injured in an ambush along the country's south-western border with Iraq carried out by a group of "bandits", press reports said Saturday.
According to the official IRNA news agency, the shooting took place early Friday near the mouth of the Shatt al-Arab waterway that flows into the Gulf. It said the patrol were fired on from the opposite bank.
The waterway is heavily guarded by both sides and rife with smugglers. Both Iranian and Iraqi officials have in the past complained about cross-border intrusions.
