Blast at British Airways Offices in Iran

Posted on: Wednesday, 2 November 2005, 06:00 CST

TEHRAN, Iran - A homemade grenade exploded outside the offices of British Airways in Tehran on Wednesday, causing no casualties, the British Embassy said.

Embassy spokeswoman Mitra Behnam Mojtahedi said the bomb exploded on the 10th floor of the building where the airline's offices are located. She said it was not clear if the target was British Airways, as other foreign companies have offices on the same floor, including British Petroleum, Lloyds and Mercedes Benz.

Mojtahedi said the explosion broke some windows but nobody was wounded. Police are investigating, she added.
