TEHRAN (Reuters) - At least 10 people were killed and 263 injured when an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 hit an area in western Iran on Friday, state television reported.

The television reporter said 10 dead had been taken to two hospitals in Boroujerd, a city in the area where the quake struck. Earlier, the official IRNA news agency said at least two dead were taken to a hospital in Doroud, in the same area.

"Some 30 to 40 villages between Doroud and Boroujerd have been damaged between 10 and 90 percent," the television reporter said, without citing his source.
