Looks like Iran's PTV is the only place to say Iran has won 2 bronze, no confirmation of this anywhere else!
Iran appear to have 1 Gold and 1 Bronze

It seems Wushu does not count towards total medal tally

They give medals but do not count them in the tally. There are a few sports in Olympics that are treated like that. Usually they are the ones that are being tried out to see whether they are popular and can be officially introduced or not.
