ISTANBUL, March 7 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- New explosions were heard in the Iranian capital Tehran on Saturday, Anadolu Ajansi (AA) reported, citing local media.
Iran’s Mehr news agency said sounds of explosions were heard in several areas of Tehran.
Later, the Israeli army said that it had started a new wave of attacks on Tehran and the city of Isfahan.
More explosions were heard in the eastern part of the capital, state-run broadcaster IRIB reported.
The Israeli army said in an earlier statement that more than 80 Israeli Air Force fighter jets carried out an additional wave of strikes targeting infrastructure belonging to the “Iranian regime” in Tehran and other areas of central Iran.
Escalating regional tensions followed the Feb 28 launch of joint United States-Israeli airstrikes on Iran, killing more than 1,000 people, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, over 150 schoolgirls, and senior military officials.
The conflict has triggered widespread regional instability and retaliatory attacks from Tehran against US-linked sites across the region.
