The report stated that a close associate of Ahmadinejad, who wished to remain anonymous, said: "I am in contact with him and he is fine. Yesterday (February 28), a building related to his security personnel was attacked. His three bodyguards - all members of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps - have been confirmed dead. But his residence was not affected, located about 100 meters away from the targeted building and was not the target of the attack."
