Tehran, Iran, Feb. 27 – Three explosions have rocked the south-western Iranian province of Khuzestan, the Fars news agency, run by the Office of the Supreme Leader, reported on Monday.

The blasts took place in different parts of the province in the early hours of the morning.

One blast occurred in the village of Malashieh nearby the volatile city of Ahwaz which has been a hotbed for anti-government protests and clashes.

A second blast was heard near the Governor’s Office in the city of Dezful and a third blast went off in the lavatory of the Governor’s Office in the city of Abadan.

The report said that three people had been injured in the blasts but gave no further details.

Ahwaz, the capital of the Arab-dominated province of Khuzestan, has been the scene of several bombings this year and in 2005.

In January, Iran accused British troops in Iraq of being behind a twin bombing in Ahwaz which left at least nine people dead and dozens injured.

A string of top Iranian officials including hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad have accused Britain of being behind the bombings.

London has repeatedly denied any involvement in the attacks.
