This was confirmed by a video showing a major Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) command center in northern Tehran. The video showed huge explosions in the area this morning. Experts have estimated that the explosions struck within a kilometer of civilian residential areas. As the operation continues, an internet blackout in Iran has entered its 84th hour, leaving Iranians terrified and "confused" as the air in their homes fills with smoke.
Iranian state television broadcasted the photos of the funerals of over 160 victims, mostly girls, killed in a strike on a school in southern Iran this past weekend. In a major military escalation, France is sending an aircraft carrier and an air-defense frigate to the eastern Mediterranean to support its allies in the UAE, Kuwait, and Qatar, which have been hit by Iran's retaliatory strikes.
