London, Jul. 05 – Iran has sent heavily-armed agents into Iraq who have set up base near the central Iraqi province of Diyala, an Iraqi daily reported.

The armed agents illegally entered Iraq from the Iranian border town of Mehran last week, the daily Az-Zaman wrote in its international edition on Tuesday.

The report quoted an Iraqi intelligence official as saying that the agents had received logistical support from armed Iraqi militias and were in an area between al-Reshad, west of Baghdad, to Khan Bani-Sad, close to Diyala.
