Iran's Intelligence Ministry says pipelines in the country's oil-rich south were on the list of bombing targets by US-sponsored agents.
In a Saturday issued statement, the Intelligence Ministry said the terrorist group's targets also included Iran's oil pipelines, Tehran's international book fair as well as scientific, religious and educational centers and other crowded locations in different cities.
"The group had been given diving lessons in order to help them identify oil pipelines in the Persian Gulf," the statement said.
