TEHRAN, March 1 (KUNA) -- Tasnim News Agency reported on Sunday that parts of the Iranian television building were subjected to an airstrike, causing a state of confusion inside the capital.
The agency added that explosions were clearly heard in various neighborhoods of Tehran, while polumes of smoke rose from the targeted sites amid reports of extensive damage to the infrastructure of Iran's official media and a partial disruption of broadcasting.
The capital, Tehran, and other Iranian cities have been under a wide-scale military attack since Saturday morning by the Israeli occupation and the United States. The attack reportedly resulted in the killing of several senior Iranian leaders, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Secretary of the Defense Council Ali Shamkhani, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Commander Major General Mohammad Pakpour, Chief of Staff Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi, and Defense Minister Aziz Nasirzadeh, along with a number of other senior armed forces commanders.
