Explosions Reported in Iran’s Capital
Iranian air defense systems were swiftly activated in response to the incoming attacks, signaling the military's engagement with what appeared to be a coordinated strike on the capital.
Monday's bombardment marks a stark escalation — bringing the war's violence directly into Tehran itself — as the broader conflict sparked by the joint US-Israeli offensive launched on Feb. 28 continues to claim lives. The campaign has now killed more than 1,340 people, among them then-Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The strikes on Tehran follow a relentless pattern of regional destabilization that has unfolded in the weeks since the offensive began. Iran has met each wave of attacks with retaliatory drone and missile strikes directed at Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf nations hosting US military assets — inflicting casualties, degrading infrastructure, and sending sustained shockwaves through global aviation networks and financial markets.
