Dozens dead in Iran after first days of attacks
There have been no reports of casualties from Iran. Iranian state media report that they are searching for victims in the Narmak district of Tehran. Unverified images show Red Crescent workers searching in the rubble.
Iran reported on Friday after the first day of Israeli attacks that 78 people had been killed, including high-ranking military personnel. According to Iran, more deaths occurred on Saturday. For example, sixty people were reportedly killed when a rocket hit an apartment complex in Tehran.
Israeli operation expected to last weeks
The attacks between Israel and Iran continue on Sunday. The Israeli army has warned Iran to evacuate areas around factories where weapons are produced.
The Israeli operation against Iran is expected to last weeks, American and Israeli officials have told CNN. That operation also has the approval of the United States.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu already warned in a video address on Saturday that Israel will “attack every location and every target of the Iranian regime.” Iran, in turn, has threatened to intensify attacks if Israel continues to attack the country.
