Four ambassadors from non-aligned and G-77 countries in the UN

Four ambassadors from non-aligned and G-77 countries in the UN
atomic agency were to head to Tehran on Friday ahead of talks on
whether Iran should face UN sanctions over its nuclear program,
Malaysian ambassador Hussein Haniff told AFP. Haniff said he and
the ambassadors of Cuba, South Africa and Algeria "are going to
update ourselves about the agreement between the EU and Iran" on
Tehran suspending uranium enrichment. The suspension, which is
set to begin on Monday, responds to a resolution adopted by the
Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency in September for
Iran to halt key parts of the nuclear fuel cycle, Haniff said.

Helicopter crash
kills 4 in Argentina

A helicopter crash killed four members of the Argentine air force
in southwestern Argentina, officials said on Friday. The accident
occurred Thursday night in a mountainous region near the city of
Bariloche, 1,360 kilometers from the capital of Buenos Aires.
The area's inhospitable terrain prevented rescue officials from
reaching the crash site until Friday morning, when all four
occupants were found dead, according to air force spokesman
Guillermo Lozada. The air force members were returning to
Bariloche after fighting a forest fire in the nearby town of El
Bolson when the Bell UH-1H helicopter went down. Officials were
searching for the cause of the accident. --AP
