Guards Save Lives in Iran by Keeping Suicide Bomber Out of Mosque

Guards at the Imam Hossein mosque in Chabahar, Iran saved lives on Friday.

They stopped a suspicious man from entering the mosque and alerted police.

When the man tried running from police he apparently accidentally set off the suicide bomb vest that he was wearing.

Two bystanders were killed and others including police were injured in the blast.

Had the guards not stopped the man, he would've entered a crowded mosque filled with people at prayer.

No one has claimed responsibility for the mostly botched attack, but the Sunni militant Jundallah group is considered a likely suspect, due to their past of bombing Shiite targets.

Puntland Captures Al Qaeda Weapons Boat

Officials in the Puntland region of Somalia say that they captured a boat loaded with weapons, ammunition, and other military hardware.

According to the officials, the boat had come from Al Qaeda, in Yemen, and was heading to supply al Shabaab.

Al Qaeda has long supplied al Shabaab with not just weaponry but soldiers as well.

Al Shabaab had been taking over large chunks of Somalia, until the African Union had had enough.

African Union forces, mostly from Kenya, Ethiopia, and Somalia have pushed al Shabaab from their position of strength, to being purely guerrilla fighters.

Four of the cases were in the US, whilst the fifth was in Canada.

Over twenty million bottles of the spray have been sold, since it was released in January 2010.

21 Now Dead From Meningitis

The meningitis death toll has risen to twenty-one, with 268 confirmed cases of the deadly brain disease, and an additional three in hospitals due to related joint infections.

All of the meningitis cases came from contaminated anti inflammation shots that were put into the spine, the joint infections came from the same shots that were injected elsewhere.

Seventy-six locations, in twenty-three states, were sent the shots, which were given to as many as fourteen thousand people.

New England Compounding Center made the shots, and has complied completely with government officials who are conducting the investigation.

Investigators are worried that at least two other drugs, made by NECC, may have also been contaminated.

8 Killed, 78 Wounded in Beirut Car Bombing

Eight people are dead and seventy-eight were wounded when a car bomb exploded in Beirut, Lebanon, on Friday.

The blast ripped through the Christian Achrafieh neighborhood, which is heavily populated with popular cafes and stores.

One of the eight killed was Brigadier General Wissam al-Hassan, who was the head of Lebanon's domestic security forces' intelligence division.

Lebanon has been quick to accuse Syria of being behind the bombing, as al-Hassan was one of the most vocal against Syria.

He had headed multiple investigations into Lebanese citizens who brought back explosives, from Syria, and were under Syrian orders.

The highest profile case was that of Michel Samaha, who had at the time been the Lebanese Information Minister.

For it's part, Syria has denounced the attack, as did the terrorist organization, Hezbollah which runs a lot of Lebanon.
