AI Summary

long article 4 min

Recent Israeli and US attacks in Tehran and Karaj, Iran, have disrupted daily life, causing widespread fear and sleep deprivation among residents. Over the past 10 days, explosions and power outages have become frequent, with residents reporting feeling unsafe as strikes get closer. The Israeli military claims to be targeting terror-related sites, including weapons research facilities and Quds Force infrastructure. These attacks are part of a larger conflict that began on February 28th with a joint Israeli-US attack on Iran, followed by Iranian retaliatory strikes. While access to Iran is restricted, reports indicate a high number of casualties, including civilians and children, though these figures are unverified. Internet connectivity is also heavily restricted, making it difficult to obtain information.
