Iran says intel service confiscated ISIS-linked explosives
Iran's official IRNA news agency says the nation's intelligence service has confiscated about 2 tons of explosives linked to planned attacks by the Islamic State group in the country's west.
Tuesday's report quotes an unnamed intelligence official as saying the explosives were to remain in Iran, scattered at 10 different locations for what IS leaders arrive ahead of the planned attacks. No other details on the find were immediately available. Iran occasionally announces fighting and detaining militants it accuses of ISIS links.
