The war in Iran has now entered its second week, with loud explosions reported in Tehran early Saturday morning. State television said blasts were heard in several areas of the Iranian capital but did not provide further details. Israel’s military said around 80 fighter jets dropped 230 munitions across Iran overnight, claiming several military sites were targeted. Meanwhile, US Central Command said American forces have struck more than 3,000 targets in Iran since last weekend. There are also mounting concerns about civilian casualties. Since the strikes began last Saturday, schools, landmarks and a hospital have reportedly been hit. The head of the World Health Organization said Thursday the agency has verified 13 attacks on health infrastructure. More than 1,300 people have been killed in Iran so far, a figure that is expected to rise. Morgan Aire reports.
