Reports say explosions were heard in Tehran, Iran’s capital, including near central districts where major government buildings and strategic infrastructure are located. Smoke and blasts were seen rising in the downtown area as air raid sirens sounded across the city. Local Iranian state media and international journalists on the ground confirmed multiple strikes hitting targets inside Tehran itself. Other confirmed or reported strikes may include military, intelligence, or presidential facilities beyond the capital city. At this early stage information is still being confirmed, and details about specific cities or other targets elsewhere in Iran have not been fully released. These locations are historically sensitive because Tehran houses key leadership offices and command centers. The choice of targets reflects how serious the attacking forces view the situation.
