Residential area hit in Tehran, rescue operations begin
Rescue efforts are underway in Tehran after a US-Israeli air attack struck a residential area, the Iranian Red Crescent Society said.
In a post on X, the group said its aid workers had been deployed and were “attempting to rescue their fellow citizens.”
The strike comes amid ongoing bombardment of the capital, where emergency teams have repeatedly been deployed to search for survivors under rubble following attacks.
