More Electricity Outages In Iran
The Iranian website Baztab, which is identified with Expediency Council Secretary Mohsen Rezai, has reported that, despite repeated denials by government representatives, there has been in recent weeks a sharp rise in electricity outages in Tehran and many other locations in Iran.
According to Baztab, the reason for the outages is the inability to meet the power needs in peak summer hours – a problem that the government is not dealing with.
The reformist daily Rooz was informed that recently, residents of the Khozestan province have been asked to cut back on electricity use during heavy usage hours.

Warden Message: Sri Lankan Airport Reopens after Attack
U.S. Embassy Colombo issued the following Warden Message on July 16, 2007:
Embassy Colombo would like to make Americans aware of the heightened possibility for terrorist attacks in Sri Lanka.

The Embassy advises Americans to be on alert when visiting government facilities and high-profile venues. Americans should continue to avoid military installations, military convoys traveling on the roads, and where possible, government buildings and political rallies/events, as they have in the past been targets for LTTE attacks.

Americans are again reminded to cooperate fully with Sri Lankan security forces as they implement increased security measures.
