An explosion at a base belonging to Iran's Revolutionary Guards has killed 18 people and injured 14.
Reports are emerging of the blast at an ammunitions store on Tuesday in north-western Lorestan province.
The injured were taken to Khoramabad, 300 miles (500 km) southwest of Tehran.

It has since become a major military, political and economic force in Iran.
