Wednesday`s blast Daylam caused by dynamite explosion

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Bushehr, Feb 17, IRNA -- The sound of a blast which was heard from 
a mountainous region in the southern province of Bushehr was caused 
by explosion of dynamites used for road construction, said a local 
security official on Thursday. 
Head of Bushehr province Security Council`s secretariat, 
Abbas Tabarroki told IRNA that experts sent to the region reported 
that the pre-noon blast on Wednesday in the mountainous region east 
of Daylam port in northern parts of Bushehr province, was the result 
of explosion of dynamites used to make roads for future laying of 
gas pipeline for transfer of gas from Assaloyeh to Bushehr. 
"Using dynamites to flatten mountainous areas and opening the 
way for pipeline construction is a routine affair," stressed the 
official. 
On Wednesday, Bushehr Governor General Esmaeel Tabadar denied 
any attack on Iran`s nuclear and oil facilities in the province.
