At least one gunman opened fire inside the Iranian parliament on Wednesday, wounding several people, state media reported.
There were mixed reports, with some local news agencies reporting there was a single shooter inside the Tehran parliamentary complex and others saying there were three men armed with rifles and a pistol.
News agencies ISNA and Fars said three people had been shot, including at least one security guard.
On the other hand, there was also an attack on the shrine of Imam Khomeini, a Muslim religious leader; injuries have also been reported. However, it is not clear whether the attacks are connected.
Earlier, reports had suggested one person entered Iranian parliament and had started shooting at the guards. “He shot one of the guards in the leg and ran away,” said agencies.
Other reports also had suggested that few might be held hostage.
