Confusion surrounded reports of an assassination attempt on the Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad today after sources in Tehran denied initial claims that an attack had taken place.
The Iranian website, khabaronline.ir, said a homemade grenade exploded near Ahmadinejad's presidential motorcade in Hamedan in western Iran as he was on his way to address a crowd. Reuters said a source in the president's office had confirmed the attack but other news outlets reported that presidential sources later denied any such attack had taken place.
