Attack on homes near Tehran kills 13 - IRGC-affiliated media
An attack on two residential units in the town of Ghaleh Mir in Tehran’s Baharestan county killed 13 people, according to the IRGC-affiliated Fars News.
Baharestan governor Morad Moradi was quoted as saying that debris removal and searches were continuing for possible survivors under the rubble.
Meanwhile, the Associated Press reported that it was not clear why the building had been targeted.
AP said neither Israel nor the United States had claimed responsibility for the early Monday strike, which came after threats by US President Donald Trump that Iran must reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
