Two powerful explosions were reported in Tehran, the capital of Iran, according to two AFP journalists present in the city. They said they felt the intensity of the blasts from several kilometers away, with their apartment windows shaking during the incident. Al Jazeera reported that the explosions occurred around 9 p.m. local time, coinciding with an announcement by Iran’s state television that it was under attack. The specific targets of the strikes were not immediately clear, though state TV broadcasts continued uninterrupted.

Earlier, Israel had stated that it had launched a new round of attacks on Tehran. The report did not specify the extent of the damage or any casualties resulting from the explosions.

The situation remains tense as details about the cause and impact of the blasts are still emerging.
