The Iranian Broadcasting Corporation building was targeted by an Israeli attack.
The Israeli army attacked the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting building in the capital.
Hours after Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz issued a warning, the Israeli army attacked the Tehran Broadcasting Organization building. According to state media, the attack caused significant damage.
Katz warned of an attack on the IRIB building, saying in a statement: “The Iranian regime’s propaganda and seditious loudspeaker is on the verge of being silenced.” Images posted on social media also showed widespread devastation at the IRIB building. Eyewitnesses also reported hearing loud explosions and widespread air defense activity around the capital.
Fatemeh Mohajerani, government spokesperson on the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting, announced, following the continued Israeli attacks on various cities, including Tehran, that in order to protect people's assets, part of the capital market and stock exchange have been closed, and that until stability returns to this market, it is necessary to protect the assets of the general public.
In addition to the stock market, Tehran offices and schools were also closed until further notice, and some citizens left Tehran following the successive explosions. It should be noted that gas stations in many areas are also currently empty and have no gasoline.
