Israeli airstrikes have reportedly targeted key defense infrastructure in Iran’s capital, including the headquarters of the Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Support, as well as the Defense Research and Innovation Organization (Sapand).
According to Iran’s semi-official Tasnim News Agency, the strikes occurred late Saturday night in the Nobonyad area of northern Tehran, causing minor structural damage to one of the ministry's office buildings. No casualties have been reported.
The report claimed Israeli aircraft were behind the attack, marking a rare and bold move to strike deep inside Tehran. In addition to the ministry’s headquarters, the Sapand facility, which is affiliated with Iran's defense research wing, was also hit in a separate strike in the same vicinity.

Hours ago, Iran partially suspended gas production at the world's biggest gas field after an Israeli strike caused a fire there, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported, in what would be the first Israeli strike on Iran's oil and gas sector.
Iran shares the South Pars gas field with Qatar. Striking it would mark a major escalation in the conflict, which had already pushed oil prices up 9% on Friday even though Israel spared Iran's oil and gas on the first day of its attacks.
