Semi-official Iranian media reported that several loud explosions were heard in the capital, Tehran, and the nearby city of Karaj, adding that the cause of the blasts was unknown.
According to the American news site Axios, the airstrikes on Iran on Saturday morning were carried out by Israel.
Semi-official Iranian media and local sources stated that at least five to ten explosions were heard in various cities across Iran. The region had been bracing for potential Israeli strikes following Iran’s major retaliatory missile attacks on Israel earlier this month.
The incident occurred after U.S. F-16 fighter jets arrived in the Middle East from Germany.
Meanwhile, Syrian state TV reported explosions in the Damascus countryside and central regions.
