Injuries reported in Israel’s attack on Iran state TV

Iran state TV says that “a number” of its staff have been killed in an Israeli strike on its headquarters in Tehran.

A reporter for the state broadcaster says that they were “working until the very last moment before the attack”, reports BBC.

Peyman Jebeli, head of the broadcasting, has just appeared on state TV showing a blood-stained paper. He says that the state TV and its employees are “standing until the end”.

Thousands work in something of a mini village that the state TV is based in. Israel had previously published a map showing a part of Tehran’s District 3 telling citizens to evacuate before the attack - and state TV was also included there.

Israel says it has attacked Iranian state media buildings in Tehran.

The air strikes were captured on live TV, with debris falling in the studio and a presenter heading off camera.

The Israeli military earlier warned people in parts of Tehran's District 3 to leave as it was targeting "military infrastructure" in the area.

Iranian state TV says a "number" of its staff were killed in the strikes.

Earlier, Israel said it had "full aerial operational control" over Tehran, four days after launching strikes on the country.

Elsewhere, Iran accuses Israel of hitting a hospital in the west of the country, and Iran's health ministry says at least 224 people have been killed by Israeli strikes since Friday.

Overnight, Iranian missiles again penetrated Israel's Iron Dome defence system overnight - the number killed in Israel since Friday has risen to 24.
