Two members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp (IRGC) have been killed while attempting to defuse explosives left over after Israel's attacks in June.
The Tasnim news agency, citing a statement from the IRGC, said that "two members of the Guards were killed on Sunday in Khorramabad while clearing the area of explosives left by the Zionist regime's aggression".
The Fars news agency also reported on Sunday the death of an Iranian soldier in Yazd, central Iran, from injuries sustained during Israel's strikes on the country.
Twelve days of attacks between Israel and Iran, sparked off by an Israeli assault on 13 June, left more than 900 dead in Iran and 28 dead in Israel.
A ceasefire between the two countries took effect on 24 June.
On Saturday evening, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei participated in a religious ceremony in Tehran, his first appearance since the truce.
On Thursday, Iran announced the reopening of its airspace, including over Tehran, which had been closed on the first day of the war.
