Clashes between armed militants and police have erupted in the south-eastern Iranian city of Zahedan, state media have reported.
Police sealed off the area and exchanged fire with the attackers after a bomb went off, Irna news agency quoted an unnamed official as saying.
It comes two days after a car bomb in Zahedan killed 11 Revolutionary Guards.
A hardline Sunni group, Jundallah, said it carried out Wednesday's attack.
Iranian officials have accused Britain and the United States of supporting ethnic minority rebels operating in the Islamic republic's sensitive border areas.
