TEHRAN, Nov 25 (Reuters) – Iran has arrested seven members of Jundollah, a Sunni rebel group it has accused of carrying out bombings and terrorist activities, the semi-official Fars news agency said on Wednesday.

Jundollah (God’s soldiers) claimed responsibility for an Oct. 18 attack in Iran’s impoverished Sistan-Baluchestan province that killed more than 40 people, including 15 members of the elite Revolutionary Guards.
