At least 6 people were killed in simultaneous airstrikes in various cities in Iran, raising tensions in the Middle East again. According to the country's media, at least 6 people were killed in a joint attack by the United States and Israel. The attack, which was carried out overnight on Thursday (March 26), also damaged civilian facilities, which is raising concerns in the international community.
According to the report, the attack targeted residential buildings in the Pardisan area of the city of Qom. A statement from the local administration said that at least three homes were directly hit, killing 6 people on the spot. Although the actual number of injuries has not yet been confirmed, it is feared that the damage may increase.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has confirmed the truth of the same incident. In their official message, it is said that the loss of life and destruction in residential areas was caused by the 'American-Zionist aggression'. This has raised new questions about the safety of ordinary people.
Meanwhile, attacks were also reported in the city of Urmia in West Azerbaijan province. The local disaster management authority said at least four civilian buildings were damaged and there were casualties, although the exact number was not disclosed.
In addition, airstrikes were reported overnight in several important cities, including Tehran, Isfahan, Kashan, Yazd, Tabriz and Ahvaz. These attacks have caused serious damage to infrastructure and raised concerns about the safety of civilians.
Analysts fear that the recent attacks could spark new instability in the Middle East. At the same time, there are growing calls for the international community to intervene quickly to prevent the situation from deteriorating further.
